Ismaila Sarr Secures Conference League Final Berth For Crystal Palace
The Ukrainian Premier League: Ismaila Sarr netted for the fifth Conference League match running to ensure Crystal Palace clinched a spot in their first European final with a 5-2 aggregate victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the semifinals, triumphing 3-1 away in Krakow before a 2-1 win over the Ukrainian team at Selhurst Park.
Palace will now face La Liga outfit Rayo Vallecano in the final, which will be held at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig on May 27. Palace are just one step away from more history, as they travel to Leipzig, seeking to win a third piece of silverware in the last year – and first-ever on the continent.
Shakhtar, needing to overturn the 3-1 first-leg deficit, began brightly, but the Eagles showed their ability to attack with pace and purpose when Adam Wharton's ingenuity enabled him to ease away from an opponent before hitting an awkward shot towards Dmytro Riznyk's left-hand post, UEFA reports.
