World No 2 is stunned by Ukraine’s Yuliia Starodubtseva Britain’s Jones lost 6-0, 7-6 (3) to 27th seed Bouzkova Even by Fran Jones’s high standards – she describes herself as a “mentality monster”, rightly so given all the trials she has overcome – her chances of any sort of recovery seemed painfully remote.

The Palace chair found himself sitting next to the Uefa president, Aleksander Ceferin, for the biggest night in their history and he can now start planning for the Europa League campaign that was denied to them as last year’s FA Cup winners were adjudged to have broken European football’s governing body’s rules on multi-club ownership. As for Glasner, who performed a full-length dive on the pitch before going up to collect his winners’ medal, it ends any debate over whether he is the greatest manager in Palace’s history.
