Crystal Palace and Manchester City face off in the FA Cup final.
The London club has reached the decisive match of this tournament for only the third time in its history, but has never lifted the trophy. Their chance for a historic breakthrough came midway through the first half against the Citizens.
Guardiola's men dominated possession, but the Eagles launched a brilliant counterattack, which was capped off by a clinical finish from Eberechi Eze, who made the most of a pinpoint pass from Daniel Muñoz.
Remarkably, the 26-year-old Englishman has now scored in five consecutive matches. Previously, he found the net against Arsenal, Aston Villa, Nottingham, and Tottenham (twice).
With this strike, Eze became the first Crystal Palace player since 2009 to score in five consecutive games. Sixteen years ago, Darren Ambrose found the back of the net in six straight matches.
