FA Cup Holders Crystal Palace Lose to 6th-Tier Macclesfield in All-Time Great Upset
Macclesfield FC — the lowest-ranked team left in the FA Cup — recorded one of the greatest shocks in the competition's history as they stunned holders Crystal Palace in a seismic 2-1 victory on Saturday. Goals either side of half-time from Paul Dawson and Isaac Buckley-Ricketts ensured the Silkmen, who were newly-reformed in 2020, reached the fourth round at the expense of their Premier League opponents.
