Doncaster Rovers midfielder Mark Wilson credited Crystal Palace with a great 'togetherness' on the pitch in the second half, following our 1-1 draw with The Eagles at the Keepmoat Stadium on Saturday.
However, the midfielder was left puzzled by some of the decisions not given by referee Neil Swarbrick, who disallowed two Rovers goals and waived away two penalty claims.
"I think it was your typical game of two halves," said Wilson after the contest on RoversPlayer.
"In the first half, I thought they looked tired - probably from the game in midweek. We capitalised on that and created a lot of chances but unfortunately only scored one. In the second half, you knew that they would probably produce a reaction from the rollicking they probably got at half time and they gave that."

Wilson also heaped praise on the Rovers' backline for keeping lone target man Alan Lee quiet throughout the game, restricting Palace's main outlet for chances.
"He (Lee) is a real presence and a real handful. Credit to the back four, they dealt with him really well and Sam did well sitting in front screening. For the majority of the game we dealt with that threat really well."
Wilson's continued run in the heart of midfield has seen the former Manchester United man's confidence soar, with Wilson doing exceptionally well to hold the ball up on the edge of the area before timing his pass into James Coppinger - who went on to score - perfectly.
"It's another assist," says Wilson.
"I'm happy with the way that I am playing at the moment. I've certainly been allowed to get forward more and I try to have a creative influence on the game. I was happy with my performance; I've had a couple of poor ones in the last couple of games, but overall, I think that playing games just builds confidence and I think you can see that in my game."
However, Wilson could not understand why both penalty claims from Doncaster Rovers were waived away, as well as how last man Matt Lawrence remained on the pitch after bringing down Billy Sharp when it looked like the on-loan striker was in on goal.
"If the first (penalty) decision wasn't, then the second one definitely was. We've seen a replay of the incident and I'm not sure if it was Butterfield, but whoever it was went straight through the back of Billy Sharp straight after. He takes his legs away and gets nothing on the ball. You miss the first one but the second one I don't understand. Certainly for the red card when Billy is clean through. Why is that not given? I don't understand. There were some questionable decisions today and they have a big impact on the game."
