Mateta Returns Donning Protective Helmet for FA Cup Clash
Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta is set to return to action in the FA Cup quarter-final against Fulham after recovering from a serious head injury sustained in a match against Millwall. Mateta required 25 stitches and has been cleared to play while wearing a custom protective helmet, similar to that used by former Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech. Manager Oliver Glasner noted that the helmet is designed to protect Mateta's injured ear, and although it may look unusual, the striker feels comfortable wearing it. Glasner confirmed that Mateta has trained well with the helmet and expressed confidence in his readiness for the match. The design process involved several iterations to ensure it was effective yet not cumbersome for training. Mateta's return is highly anticipated as he aims to contribute to the team's success following his recovery.
