(Reuters) - Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has denied diving during Saturday's goalless draw at Watford in the Premier League and complained there is an agenda to get him banned for simulation.

The 25-year-old has now received eight yellow cards for simulation and was accused of cheating once again after he went to ground in Watford's penalty box under Adrian Mariappa's challenge in the second half at Vicarage Road.
