Muñoz and Devenny deliver for Palace with Millwall date in store

Crystal Palace successfully navigated a tricky FA Cup tie against Doncaster Rovers to set up a tantalising fifthround clash with Millwall.

On a wet and wild evening in south Yorkshire against a Doncaster side pushing for automatic promotion from League Two, this had all the hallmarks of a sticky evening's work for Palace. However, goals either side of half-time courtesy of Daniel Muñoz and Justin Devenny were enough to see off Grant McCann's men, who gave Palace plenty of problems on the night.

Doncaster exit the cup with their heads held high but the quality of Palace in crucial moments was decisive. With Adam Wharton excelling on his first start in several months and Ben Chilwell making his debut for the visitors, this was a good result for Oliver Glasner, whose side now host their south London neighbours in the next round.

The hosts had opportunities to worry a side almost 60 places above them in the pyramid, but those that came their way were ultimately spurned. That meant that when Devenny doubled Palace's advantage after Muñoz finished a clever freekick routine, there was little doubt about which side would progress.
