Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner praised Eddie Nketiah after the English-Ghanaian forward scored in their 3-1 FA Cup victory over Millwall.
Nketiah sealed the win with a difficult backward header in the closing minutes at Selhurst Park.
Glasner highlighted the technical difficulty of the goal, emphasizing the importance of such training drills.
Millwall suffered an early setback when Liam Roberts was sent off in the eighth minute.
Palace took advantage, scoring first through a Japhet Tanganga own goal before Daniel Muñoz doubled the lead.
Millwall responded before halftime with a goal from Wes Harding, but Nketiah’s late header secured the win.
Since joining Palace from Arsenal last summer, Nketiah has now scored three goals. His international future remains open, as he is still eligible to represent Ghana.
