Dean Henderson led an X-rated chant as Crystal Palace players joined supporters to toast their shock FA Cup victory at Wembley on Saturday night.

The Eagles earned a 1-0 win over Man City to secure the club’s first major silverware in their history.

Eberechi Eze was Palace’s hero at the national stadium, turning in a Daniel Munoz cross for the only goal of the showpiece.

The 28-year-old then produced a stunning penalty save from Omar Marmoush to preserve Palace’s lead, before making a series of fine stops to seal victory.

After lifting the FA Cup, Crystal Palace’s squad headed to BoxPark at Wembley to continue their celebrations.

Henderson, appearing on a balcony, took the microphone and led supporters in revised X-rated version of Shakira’s song ‘Waka Waka’.

‘Tsamina mina, eh, eh, waka waka, eh, eh, 12 again who gives a f***, we’ve won the FA Cup,’ Henderson chanted.

Henderson delivered multiple renditions of the chorus with fans joining in with the chant.

The goalkeeper’s chant referenced long-running jokes about Crystal Palace’s mid-table Premier League finishes since returning to the top flight back in 2013.

Palace have achieved a high of 10th place over the past 11 seasons, with the Eagles lowest finish being 15th in that time period.

Oliver Glasner’s side headed into the final in 12th place in the table, but qualified for next season’s Europa League following their triumph in the FA Cup final.

Long-serving midfielder Will Hughes suggested Palace will have a boozy night of celebrations after downing a beer on the balcony, amid chants and cheers from Palace supporters.

Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish also addressed fans who had gathered at BoxPark.

‘This has been an unbelievable moment for all of us, for South London,’ Parish said.

‘I want to thank each and every one of you, you have been absolutely amazing, all of the people that have given us support.’

One Palace star, Adam Wharton, was absent from their initial post-match celebrations.

Wharton had been struck in the head by a thunderous Kevin De Bruyne shot late on and had to be assessed for concussion.

Though he walked off unassisted and appeared in good spirits, Palace’s medical team took no risks and sent him for concussion checks post-match, ruling him out of the immediate celebrations.

However, the midfielder was able to post on Instagram later on Saturday, and even poked fun at himself after missing out on enjoying some special moments with his team-mates.

Alongside a photo of himself lying in a hospital bed, Wharton wrote: ‘Apparently we won the FA Cup! EAGLESSSSSSSSSS.’
