Crystal Palace are officially making history in Europe. The Eagles extended their unbeaten run to 11 consecutive matches across all competitions, setting a new club record after their hard-fought 2 – 0 victory over Dynamo Kyiv in the UEFA Europa Conference League group stage.
This triumph continues what has been a dream start to Palace’s European adventure their first in club history. Manager Oliver Glasner, who took over earlier this year, has completely transformed the team’s playing identity, blending structure with attacking flair.
The win over Dynamo Kyiv at Selhurst Park saw Eberechi Eze open the scoring with a stunning solo effort before Jean-Philippe Mateta, fresh off his first France national team call-up, sealed the victory with a clinical finish in the second half.
Despite Kyiv’s late push, Palace’s defense held firm, led by captain Marc Guéhi, ensuring they remain top of their group and undefeated since the start of the European campaign.
After the match, Glasner praised his side’s mentality:
“This team has belief, energy, and balance. We’re not just participating in Europe we’re competing. The players deserve this recognition for their hard work and unity.”
The win not only cements Palace’s spot as one of England’s form sides but also breaks a 120-year record, marking their longest-ever unbeaten run in all competitions. The South London club continues to rise under Glasner’s leadership, showing that European football is no longer a dream but the new standard.
With Premier League momentum behind them and European progress on track, the Eagles’ faithful can start dreaming bigger maybe even lifting their first-ever continental trophy.
