Macclesfield Slay the Holders

from Just For Kicks · host BFM Media

The magic of the FA Cup! In what may stand as the greatest upset the competition has ever seen, the wand was waved at Moss Rose as tiny Macclesfield toppled defending champions Crystal Palace 2–1. Reborn from the ashes of financial ruin, Macclesfield—117 places below their Premier League visitors—played with fearless belief, struck twice, and held firm against a late Palace surge to seal a night for the ages.We review that extraordinary moment, along with plenty more FA Cup drama, right here on Just For Kicks!
