(Reuters) - Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has been ruled out for four weeks after injuring his right knee in his team's 3-0 home defeat by promoted Huddersfield Town in their opening Premier League game of the season on Saturday.
The Ivory Coast international, who has been Palace's Player of the Year for the last two seasons and signed a new five-year deal in May, left Selhurst Park with his knee in a brace and his absence is a major setback for manager Frank de Boer.
