Crystal Palace shocked Fulham at Craven Cottage, winning their fifth consecutive match to reach the FA Cup semi-finals.

Fulham controlled the first 30 minutes but failed to capitalize, with Rodrigo Muniz coming closest to scoring. Eberechi Eze then gave Palace the lead with a stunning strike in the 34th minute, curling a low shot around Bernd Leno. Eze also assisted Ismaila Sarr’s goal before Eddie Nketiah added a third, finishing through Leno’s legs.

This victory marks Palace’s fifth win in a row and their first appearance in the semi-finals since 2022. Managed by Oliver Glasner, the team has transformed after a slow start to the season, now pushing for a spot in the top half of the league and advancing in both the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.

While Palace organized well in a 3-4-2-1 formation, Fulham struggled to create chances after Eze’s goal. Despite making substitutions, they couldn’t recover, leaving them three points away from a Champions League spot. This home loss will sting for Fulham, especially with a Wembley trip on the line.
