Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira has admitted he was "disappointed" with his team against Stoke City.
The Eagles were able to progress in the FA Cup, reaching the quarter-final stage with a 2-1 victory against the Championship side on Wednesday night.
Cheikhou Kouyate originally gave his team the lead, but Josh Tymon responded for the Potters, drawing things level until Jairo Riedewald scored in the 82 minute for Palace.
"It is a really exciting period and moment I would say but it is still one step before Wembley. We are pleased and happy to go to the next round but I was really disappointed with the way we played," Vieira admitted to the press.
"We did not play well, we did not use the ball well enough or create enough chances and we did not defend well as a team. If we want to go further, we will have to play better."
Crystal Palace will be back in action on Saturday when they face Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League. body check tags ::
