Crystal Palace are winners of the FA Cup- after beating Manchester City.

It finished 1-0 after 90 minutes, with the only goal coming from Eberechi Eze.

This is the first time 'The Eagles' have ever won the trophy, in the club's history.

Journey to the Final:

Palace smashed Aston Villa 3-0, last month in their Semi-Final. This put them in the club's third ever FA Cup final.

'The Cityzens' meanwhile beat Nottingham Forest in the Semi-finals, to get to their third time in three years.

Before the game, Pep Guardiola said it was "massively important" for his side to win the FA Cup.

While Oliver Glasner said winning the trophy might hold more weight for Crystal Palace than it could for their opponents.

Form going into this:

Crystal Palace have had a strong second half of the season in which they have lost just four of their last 24 games.

Man City sit fourth in the Premier League and have lost nine games, all season.

Palace and City drew 2-2 when they played each other at Selhurst Park in December.

Guardiola's men more recently came back to claim a 5-2 Premier League victory at the Etihad Stadium last month.
