Crystal Palace Reaches Third FA Cup Final

Crystal Palace secured a 3-0 win over Aston Villa at Wembley, reaching the FA Cup final for the first time in nine years and only the third time in their 119-year history. Eberechi Eze scored a long-range opener, while Ismaila Sarr added two more goals after Jean-Philippe Mateta missed a penalty in the second half. Under manager Oliver Glasner, Palace overcame past disappointments and are now one win away from their first major trophy, set to face either Manchester City or Nottingham Forest in the final. Aston Villa, who last won the FA Cup in 1957, struggled to respond despite early pressure. Glasner praised his squad's resilience and urged focus for the final. The win has boosted Palace fans' hopes for a historic first trophy.
