Pino: Palace's first World Cup Winner!

[RubinsCube]

Following the World Cup final result on Sunday I was wondering if Yeremy Pino was the first ever Crystal Palace world cup winner. Turns out he is!

Yeremy Pino becomes Crystal Palace's first World Cup winner

Maybe something the fans can come up with a new song about.

Greg Berhalter was the first palace player just to play at a World Cup finals in 2002

Ordinarily fans would tenuously claim his son down the paternal line but these days such desperate connecting is not required.

I am probably wrong, but didn’t Rachid Harkouk represent Algeria at the WC when he was with us

No. He left us in 1978 and didn't get picked for Algeria until 1986 (Good old Wiki).

Many have played in World Cup games but Pino,surely is our first World Cup Winner.
Congratulations on this fine achievement!

I loved Barry Silkman, it’s true you just don’t get the character’s anymore, his book is a good read if you haven’t already

He played for about 5 minutes. That's all I'm saying.

But it was one heck of a 5 minutes and I doubt they’d have won it without his contribution 🤣

In which he managed to break himself.
