2 min read
Crystal Palace’s impressive run continued with a third consecutive Premier League victory, this time against Newcastle United at Selhurst Park. The Eagles showcased their best form once again, earning praise from opposing manager Eddie Howe for their style of play.
Jean-Philippe Mateta played a pivotal role in Palace’s triumph, opening the scoring and sealing the win with his fourth goal in two games. With this victory, manager Oliver Glasner has secured Premier League survival for another season, marking a significant milestone for the club under his leadership.
Looking ahead, Glasner has set a new goal for his players despite their assured safety in the league. In his post-match press conference, Glasner emphasized the importance of maintaining momentum and urged the squad to aim for a fourth consecutive victory.
“We now go for four in a row,” declared Glasner. “Great performance and all the credit to the players today. The energy, the intensity, the offensive way of playing—always trying to score goals. It’s a good feeling to have completed mission number one: staying in the Premier League.”
Glasner’s message reflects his desire to instill a winning mentality within the team and sustain the positive momentum they have built. The upcoming fixtures against Fulham, Manchester United, Wolves, and Aston Villa provide opportunities for Palace to continue their winning streak and finish the season on a high note.
Palace’s current run of form has brought renewed excitement to the club, with fans relishing the team’s success. Achieving three consecutive victories for the first time since 2022/23 and potentially extending it to four would be a significant achievement for Palace, highlighting the progress made under Glasner’s tenure.
As Palace aim to extend their winning streak, Glasner’s leadership will be crucial in guiding the team to further success and establishing a strong foundation for the future.
