**Yes, you read that correctly....**
A journey that started in Norway way back in August culminated in memorable style on Wednesday night in Leipzig, with a 1-0 victory in the Final over Spanish club Rayo Vallecano.
After a tense first-half, Jean-Philippe Mateta found the breakthrough in the 51st minute, right in front of the Palace end.
It proved to be enough. The Eagles defending magnificently to keep a clean sheet, winning a third trophy in the last year.
**The result sees us lift a European trophy for the very first time!**
As well as sealing another major honour just 12 months after our first, the result means Palace qualify for the 2026/27 UEFA Europa League – the European tour isn’t stopping here!
The Eagles will go straight into the league phase of Europe’s second-tier tournament next season.
It also marks the perfect way to say farewell to Oliver Glasner, who leaves South London having put three trophies in the cabinet. He departs a true Palace great.
**For now though, soak it up, savour it – Crystal Palace have won a European trophy!**
