Wilfried Zaha has hit back at his former Crystal Palace teammate Jean-Philippe Mateta over the striker's comments following his France debut.

Mateta made his first France start on Monday, scoring in the 2-2 draw over Iceland, but made a slight dig at former Palace team-mate Zaha for doubting he could make it at national team level.

Mateta told L'Equipe: "At Crystal Palace, right at the start, when I wasn't even playing, I spoke about the France team in the dressing room and I had team-mates like Wilfried Zaha who were laughing.

"They said that I was mad to think about the France team when I wasn't even playing at Crystal Palace, but I responded saying that it was my objective and that I simply had to play to show what I could do.

"My dream has always been to play for the France team. I knew that I would get my chance."

Zaha responded in a video on social media, saying: "I'm sorry but my head's on fire. I've got to clear up this Mateta situation because he doesn't want to and this just shows me that...see the times when I was playing at Crystal Palace and all these people were watching...
