Matheus Franca was delighted making his full debut for Crystal Palace in last night's FA Cup 0-0 draw with Everton.
The tie marked the Brazilian attacker's first start for the club.
Franca told Palace TV: I very [much] enjoyed this game. I played with the team and it was very nice for me. I need this opportunity to improve my football. I need to play in the Premier League. I feel very happy with it [the game].
It was a difficult game, but I think my team was very good in the match. It [the result] is okay.
I think it's four months now, but I think I need to stay here a longer time [to fully adapt].
It's good. I'm adapting with my team. I'm adapting to the supporters. They're different to Brazilian supporters, but it's good too! I like this new home.
Yeah, I feel [the] excited [response] from the fans because when the fans say to me 'come on Frana' or other things, I feel very good! I need to improve for me, and for the supporters too.
I liked their song! I think their support is very important in the match."
