Crystal Palace: First title only the beginning for Eagles as Dean Henderson heroics see Eagles clinch FA Cup
This blue-sky Saturday belonged to Crystal Palace, and 17 May 2025 always will.
Palace need wait no longer, their first-ever piece of major silverware finally secure. They are FA Cup winners for the very first time, and so a European adventure now awaits — they’re in the Europa League next season. Yep, Palace have hit the big time.
Ward started when Palace last contested an FA Cup final, in 2016, the second of two cup final defeats to Manchester United, after the first in 1990. On both occasions, Palace were so close but lost.
