Crystal Palace have now done something no other English side ever has after 3-0 FA Cup win

Crystal Palace have made English football history after beating Fulham in the FA Cup quarter-final on Saturday.

Goals from Eberඣechi Eze, Ismaila Sarr and Eddie Nketiah saw the Eagles book their place at Wembley for the last four, where Nottingham Forest have since joined them after knocking Brighton out on penalties❀.

It was a fantastic win by Crystal Palace – one Oliver Glasner will be incredibly prou🌠d of – and the south Londoners have actually set a landmark in English football by not conceding to the Cott🍌agers.

Crystal Palace make English football history

The 3-0 win at Fulham was Crystal Palace’s ♏sixth away victory in a row without conceding a goal.

According to Opta, no other English side has ever achieved such a feat at this level of the sp❀ort.

Remarkably, Crystal Palace have scored 13 goals in these six away games,🧜 so Glasner has 🌳not just been scraping six consecutive 1-0 wins away from Selhurst Park, although even that would be impressive.

With a trip to Southampton – bottom of the Premier League on just nine points – to come for Crystal Palace on Wednesday, the Eagles have a decent chance of extending this record even furthe💛r.

Oliver Glasner could see his Crystal Palace side picked apart

Winning the FA Cup is one task for Glasner, but keeping this electric Crystal Palace side together will be ♉another very tough job for the Austrian and Steve Parish to manage.
