"Eagles" Crystal Palace set a record on the opening day of the Conference League

Dynamo Kyiv welcomed English football representative Crystal Palace not at their familiar home stadium Valeriy Lobanovskyi, but had to borrow Arena Lublin in Poland amid ongoing military conflicts between Ukraine and Russia.

Dynamo Kyiv fans also had to go to Poland to cheer for their team.

2,600 Palace fans excited about home team's victory in Poland

2,600 fans accompanied Oliver Glasner's team to Poland and their efforts were not in vain, with Crystal Palace showing that they are one of the leading candidates in the Conference League, an arena they reluctantly entered because of UEFA's lack of compassion.

Daniel Munoz after opening the scoring for Crystal Palace

Facing many difficulties in the first half against Dynamo Kyiv who played a very resilient defense, Crystal Palace took more than half an hour to make a difference.

In the 31st minute, rookie Yeremy Pino accurately crossed the ball for Daniel Munoz to jump up and head it in to open the score. The successful coordination between the two Spanish players really made the fans of the team nicknamed "Eagles" extremely excited.

Eddie Nketiah scores consecutively for Palace

In the second half, coach Oliver Glasner's team continued to play solidly and took advantage of scoring opportunities. In the 58th minute, Yeremy Pino again provided an assist, this time helping substitute striker Eddie Nketiah score to double the gap.

The former Arsenal striker scored the winning goal in a 2-1 win over Liverpool a few days ago, and this time it was the goal that sealed the match against Dynamo Kyiv.

Crystal Palace have their first win on their European debut day

There was some regret for Crystal Palace's impressive performance, as Will Hughes had to leave the field injured and Borna Sosa was sent off late in the match after receiving two unnecessary yellow cards in just three minutes.

Coach Oliver Glasner satisfied with Crystal Palace's performance

This achievement surpassed the old record of 18 unbeaten matches set in 1969 under coach Bert Head.
