It's a crowning achievement for Palace — and a moment that will live forever in club folklore

Crystal Palace have made history by winning the FA Cup for the first time, defeating reigning giants Manchester City 1–0 in a dramatic final at Wembley. It is the South London club’s first major trophy in their 119-year history.

The hero of the day was none other than Eberechi Eze, who fired home the only goal of the game in the 16th minute. The England international coolly slotted in a low cross from Daniel Muñoz, sending the Palace fans into raptures.

Manchester City had a golden opportunity to level before the break when they were awarded a penalty, but Dean Henderson guessed correctly and denied Omar Marmoush from the spot. Despite dominating possession and creating numerous chances, Pep Guardiola's side failed to find a breakthrough — even with 10 minutes of added time.

The result means Manchester City end the 2024/25 season without a single trophy, a rarity in the Guardiola era. Meanwhile, it's a crowning achievement for Palace — and a moment that will live forever in club folklore.
