Crystal Palace secured a historic trophy on Wednesday evening in the Conference League final in Leipzig. The English club beat Spain's Rayo Vallecano 1:0 thanks to a goal from Mateta.

The final was played in a tense atmosphere, with Crystal Palace showing a solid defense and fast-paced play that outmatched their Spanish opponents. The decisive goal came from a penalty kick, which Mateta converted with precision. The team was led by coach Oliver Glasner, who thus added another European triumph to his career.

For the Austrian coach, this was his last match on the Crystal Palace bench. Glasner became a key figure in the club's transformation in under 12 months. Under his leadership, the Eagles became incredibly successful, reaching a historic level of performance. It was Glasner's arrival in 2023 that marked a turning point for Crystal Palace, which under his tactical guidance was led all the way to the European podium. This triumph brings Glasner's tenure in London to a perfect close – as the coach who brought the club the first such title in its existence. n-tv ↗ n-tv ↗
