📖 How Macclesfield made FA Cup history against Crystal Palace

The magic of the FA Cup remains undefeated for yet another year across the English football pyramid in the wake of Macclesfield's unbelievable upset win over holders Crystal Palace.

Oliver Glasner's side, who were once on the other end of luck during their own shock run to silverware last season that saw the Eagles lift their first major honour in club history, but a fairytale repeat was ruthlessly denied by the fifth-tier Silkmen.

A strike in the 90th minute from Yéremi Pino was not enough to cancel out earlier strikes from Paul Dawson and Isaac Buckley-Ricketts that would push John Rooney's men over the line at Moss Rose.

And with that, Macclesfield's win officially enters the record books as the biggest upset in the competition's history, given the margin of difference between the two sides in the football pyramid.

Separated by 117 places, this may be a feat that stands tall for some time.
