Mitchell on what it means to be European trophy winners

The left wing-back put in a typically energetic performance to help Palace defeat Rayo Vallecano and become Conference League winners.

The Eagles secured a third major trophy in a year after Jean-Philippe Mateta's goal not long after half-time was enough for a 1-0 win in Leipzig.
