Oliver Glasner says he would not swap Crystal Palace's Community Shield victory for a spot in next season's Europa League.



The FA Cup holders claimed their second trophy in three months - and first Community Shield - by overcoming Premier League champions Liverpool on penalties after the match ended 2-2 at Wembley.



Palace will find out on Monday whether they will be allowed to play in Europe's second-tier cup competition in 2025-26.

The Eagles were demoted to the Uefa Conference League as punishment for breaching multi-club ownership rules, as American businessman John Textor owns a stake in the club and is the majority owner of Lyon, who also qualified for the Europa League.

An appeal was submitted against their demotion with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).

The appeal is against Uefa, which issued the punishment, French club Lyon and Premier League rivals Nottingham Forest - with a decision expected on Monday.

When asked whether he would swap the Wembley win for a successful appeal, Glasner replied: "No.



"Tomorrow we have no influence, so we celebrate tonight, meet tomorrow for lunch then training.

We can't think about it."

Penalty shootout hero Dean Henderson added Palace's potential demotion from the Europa League to the Conference League would "devalue the competition".

"I think you will see by today, we don't take too much notice of it at the end of the day," Henderson told BBC Radio 5 Live at Wembley.



"For football purposes we deserve to be in the Europa League.



"Things that are won on the pitch should be rewarded and I think every neutral football fan would agree with that.



"I know Crystal Palace fans have waited 120 years, maybe even longer, for the first trophy and chance to go on a European tour.
