It was amazing.We're doing this [training it], of course, for scoring goals. We're doing it so that the players get used to good crosses and timing, and also for having fun, having a competition and scoring goals because at the end, you need to score goals to win games. Of course, it's good when it helps, and Eddie did it today.In an entertaining encounter on Saturday, Nketiah rose high to head home with nine minutes remaining.Meanwhile, Milwall were reduced to ten men as early as the eight minute when Liam Roberts was sent off.Few minutes later, the Premier League side broke the deadlock through a Japhet Tanganga own goal.Daniel Munoz added Palace's secon seven minutes later and after a long addition time in the first half, the visitors pulled one back through Wes Harding.Nketiah, who remains eligible to represent Ghana, has now scored three goals for Palace since joining them last summer from Arsenal.
