Jairo Riedewald’s late winning goal was enough to see the Eagles through, after Cheikhou Kouyate had given them the lead early in the second-half.
Palace showed character to bounce back after Josh Tymon’s equaliser, and now find themselves within 90 minutes of a trip to Wembley in April.
Just as Patrick Vieira predicted the crowd in south London made a huge difference, creating a deafening atmosphere, but if you couldn’t make the game, brush up on all the key moments below.
REACTION
It was a big night for match-winner Jairo Riedewald, who was thrilled to score his first Selhurst Park goal in front of the ‘amazing’ Palace fans.
Just as pleased was Tayo Adaramola, who built on his substitute appearance against Hartlepool United with a first senior start against Stoke.
He spoke to Palace TV, and even revealed a peculiar issue he suffered in the south London rain…
Finally, the manager laid out where his team can look to improve going forward.
DID YOU NOTICE?
Jean-Philippe Mateta’s hard work extended beyond his role as centre-forward.
The Frenchman was a constant thorn in the sides of the Stoke defence with his hold-up play but he was just as persistent elsewhere, racing back to sweep up in his own penalty area.
Tayo Adaramola was not scared to show off his considerable ability on the ball in his first full start. With a Stoke defender advancing on him, he produced a sumptuous ‘Cruyff turn’ to set Palace on the attack.
