The Eagles claimed their first-ever trophy after 120 years.<\/a> Crystal Palace defeated Pep Guardiola\u2019s Manchester City 1-0 in the FA Cup final, ending a 120-year wait for a major title. The winning goal came from Eberechi Eze in the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goalkeeper Dean Henderson put on a brilliant performance, keeping Manchester City from equalizing as Palace held onto their one-goal lead throughout the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After some VAR review for a handball, Henderson, who made several key saves, also stopped Omar Marmoush\u2019s penalty attempt. He was the hero of the game, denying City multiple scoring chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what Palace will remember most is making history under manager Oliver Glasner by finally breaking their 120-year trophy drought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Omar Marmoush starting alongside Erling Haaland, and Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva controlling the midfield, there was no designated defensive midfielder on the field.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crystal Palace: Oliver Glasner received a major boost as Adam Wharton returned to full fitness, allowing Crystal Palace to field the expected lineup. Eberechi Eze and Ismaila Sarr supported Jean-Philippe Mateta, who started next to Daichi Kamada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A brilliant pass from De Bruyne to the far post, followed by an audacious volley, created Haaland\u2019s first major chance of the game, forcing goalkeeper Dean Henderson to make a crucial save and push the ball for a corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another standout for Palace was Richards, who excelled as the right central defender in a back-five formation. He played a key role in Palace\u2019s clean sheet, registering 40 touches and completing 82% of his passes throughout the 90 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with making four blocks and recording 12 clearances from defense, he successfully completed five passes into the final third of the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
