LVG, gracious and humble in victory. Whinging bastard. 

[MJB]

LVG is a tit. Just enjoy winning the game, ffs.

[Kyle]

Would rather have lost 4-0. A 92nd minute goal is heartbreaking.

[Baddar]

The penalty award did change the game, but if he was expecting Everton to just roll over and lose a Cup semi final, that's just silly.

[Lineker]

Graham Taylor is so tiny  

Six changes for Palace from the weakened team that lost 2-0 at Manchester United. One of them sees the influential Yannick Bolasie return to the starting XI. Emmanuel Adebayor is on the bench. Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo return to Watford's attack with the Hornets making eight changes from the 3-1 defeat to West Ham.

---

Crystal Palace make two changes from quarter-final win over Reading. Midfielder Jasson Puncheon and forward Connor Wickham come in for Joe Ledley and Emmanuel Adebayor. Watford keep Costel Pantilimon in goal as in the quarter-final but make three changes from last round victory over holders Arsenal. Defender Miguel Britos and midfielders Jose Manuel Jurado and Almen Abdi come in for Sebastian Prodl, Valon Behrami and Adlene Guedioura.

Crystal Palace XI: Hennessey, Ward, Dann, Delaney, Souare, Cabaye, Jedinak, Zaha, Puncheon, Bolasie, Wickham.
Watford XI: Pantilimon, Nyom, Cathcart, Britos, Ake, Abdi, Capoue, Watson, Jurado, Ighalo, Deeney.

This thread was a rollercoaster of emotions through today's semi-final.

Granted, they were all Lineker's. But still.

[Lineker]

Mark Clattenburg will officiate in the final.

[Thrilla]

United to win by a penalty then >_>

[Lineker]

Utd should be winning this.

I want Palace to win. Not just because I've stuck a quid on them.

I love the FA Cup final. After the WC and Euros its my favourite competition.

Oh fucking hell I hate this song

And this song

[DavidMarrio]

A game in which I don't care who wins because I dislike both teams made worse by the fact that there's a shitty Tinie Tempah concert before the game kicks off.

Can this just end in a draw in which no one wins the trophy?

[brenchill]

Come on Palace.

EAGLES EAGLES EAGLES

[Whisper]

Tinie Tempah is shit.

Could probably do a job for us at left back instead of Rojo though.

[Bobfoc]

These singers seem to have adopted the English fans' inability to sing in time with the music.

[DavidMarrio]

Man Utd keeping tradition of having delayed kick offs this season. It's 5:31 ffs

[brenchill]

Why didn't she sing the first part then? What was that?

[Bobfoc]

She missed her cue to start singing, it would seem.
