Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has saluted Chrisantus Uche after he fired an opening goal against KuPS in a UEFA Conference League clash.
Uche | #9 ⚽
Uche has a vast amount of physical talents which allows him to roll and pin defenders with ease.
Mixed with his tidy finishing, great link up play, both footedness and brilliant pressing abilities.
He's a very intelligent player too. pic.twitter.com/Op9lTrcWZS— 🏆 7/6/23 🏆 (@ConnorWHU_) December 19, 2025
The Super Eagles forward put the home team in front as early as the fifth minute with a stunning goal with the outside of the foot from the edge of the box.
The Palace boss said Uche scored “a fantastic goal” and he was pleased with the performance of the team.
It was Uche’s first goal at Selhurst Park and he has now scored in back-to-back Conference League games.
The 2-2 draw with Finnish club KuPS has qualified the Premier League for the Conference League Playoffs in February.
