Crystal Palace Advances to Conference League Quarter-Finals
Crystal Palace secured a place in the quarter-finals of the Conference League following a thrilling 2-1 victory over Larnaca after extra time.
Key Moments in the Match
Ismaïla Sarr kicked off the scoring for the away team during regular time and then extended his side’s lead early in the second half of extra time, finding the net again in the 99th minute.
Sarr’s Outstanding Performance
The Senegalese forward’s two goals in Cyprus marked his 15th goal of the season across all competitions for Crystal Palace, setting a new personal record for him in professional football.
In the previous season, Sarr netted 12 goals as Palace claimed victory in the FA Cup, and he had only managed a maximum of 13 goals in a single season while playing for both Rennes and Watford.
It’s clear that he chose a perfect moment to achieve this personal milestone!
