FULL Pep reaction

Watch Pep Guardiola’s full press conference over on our YouTube channel:

Pep on decision not to send Henderson off and Palace time-wasting

Pep Guardiola would not comment on the decision not to send Dean Henderson off in Man City’s FA Cup final defeat.

“Listen, ask the referee or the VAR, honestly.”

The City boss was seen disagreeing with the Palace goalkeeper about something at the end of the game and asked if it was to do with time-wasting, Guardiola said: “He defended his position and we defend our position.

“Everyone can do whatever they want. We have to score goals. We didn’t lose because Henderson was time wasting.

“They gave ten minutes added on time but it’s a question of rhythm. It’s a question for all the fans, who are there to watch the 22 players play.

“But I understand their position. It’s a question of the referee. It’s not my question.

“We didn’t have the rhythm we needed. I don’t feel it. With my teams I never tried it because I try to play the game like the people deserve to watch. That’s all.”

Crystal Palace chairman 'so proud'

Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish speaking to the BBC: “We owe them [Crystal Palace fans] a trophy and we got them one today.

“This is for everyone that has sent me a bit of encouragement when it has been going badly, all the people that don’t just have a go at you, all the people that believe – this is for them.

“I am so proud. The team, the fans, I honestly believed that we would win. That’s what Oliver’s [Glasner] done. He made us all believe. You could see it at the end.”

'We had a feeling it would be our day' - Dean Henderson on FA Cup win

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson speaking to BBC Sport: “Incredible. We had a feeling it would be our day today. The manager got a gameplan and we executed it. We deserve this so much.”

On his penalty save: “To be fair, Haaland might have stepped up. He gave it to Marmoush and I knew which way he was going.

“I knew I would save it.”
