Palace gains the FA Cup final


Well, despite having a "rough go" in the Premier League since January, Crystal Palace will have a shot at the FA Cup title after defeating Watford 2-1 in the semifinal at Wembley.  Given the Premier League disappointment, winning the FA Cup would be a great highlight for the season (and the American investors).


Crystal Palace 2-1 Watford: Conor Wickham heads Eagles into first FA Cup final since 1990 after Troy Deeney had cancelled out Yannick Bolasie opener at Wembley

Unfortunately they have to play Manchester United, who has definitely got more talent, and who after a slow start has been playing well in the Premier League lately (and they defeated Crystal Palace handily a few days ago).   So winning the FA Cup could be a long shot.  But in this year of long-shot Leicester City in the lead in the Premier League with four games to go (but not a sure thing), clearly anything is possible.
