LONDON (AP) --- Crystal Palace pulled off one of the biggest FA Cup final
upsets in recent memory by beating Manchester City 1-0 at Wembley Stadium on
Saturday.
Palace lifted the trophy for the first time in its history and ensured the once
dominant City would end the campaign empty-handed.
Eberechi Eze's first-half strike also secured the first major trophy Palace has
ever won.
As cup final upsets go, it was up there with Wigan's victory over City in 2013
and Wimbledon's famous win against Liverpool in 1988.
