Glasner challenges Palace to win more trophies after FA Cup glory
Crystal Palace supporters near Selhurst Park celebrate around a cardboard depicting manager Oliver Glasner as they wait for the arrival of an open-top bus parade in honour of the club's FA Cup final win (BENJAMIN CREMEL) Oliver Glasner has urged Crystal Palace to "go for every single one" as his FA Cup-winners celebrated their upset Wembley win over Manchester City in front of more than 20,000 fans at Selhurst Park on Monday. Rain towards the end of the Eagles' open-top bus parade through the streets of south London could not dampen the enthusiasm of Palace fans determined to revel in the club's first major trophy in its 119-year history.

"Four competitions, four titles to win, let's go for every single one," the Palace manager added. Glasner led Eintracht Frankfurt to Europa League glory in 2022, with the 50-year-old Austrian now credited with transforming Palace's mentality and ambition since arriving in south London in February 2024. "I couldn't be more pleased to work with a group of players like they are," added Glasner.

"We had tough moments in this season, but you were always behind us. You always supported us, and my feeling was we were always one Crystal Palace, and that's why we could win the trophy, that's why we could succeed, so thank you very much for your support, and let's keep going like this." Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson, who saved a penalty in a 1-0 Wembley win over City where Eberechi Eze's goal sealed victory, said Monday: "This is for the fans. You deserve this. Enjoy it, and we'll be back next season with more, hopefully." jdg/dmc
