Palace have struggled in the Premier League and failed to defend their FA Cup title after being dumped out in the Third Round by Macclesfield.
But they're still alive in Europe and Munoz told Palace's website: “For the team, it has been an unusual season.
“We had a very, very, very good start, where the team improved a lot in every aspect. From the beginning up until December, we were practically one of the best teams in the league.
“Maybe the injuries had an impact. I think that influenced the ups and downs a bit, which is normal for every team. But now, we’re focused on the rest of the season and what we can still achieve.
“We have to keep working and we have to keep fighting. I am faithful and I believe that, in the end, honest work always pays off, so it remains on us to get up every morning, work hard, and fight for the best results for the team.
“The goals for us are clear: we want to finish as high as possible in the Premier League table, hopefully reaching the European places again – and we want to reach the Conference League final in Leipzig.”
Let's win it!
Indeed, Munoz also stated: “I think this season is special. When you play a tournament of this level – whether it’s the Champions League, Europa League, or Conference League – it’s always exciting.
“But since it’s the first time in Palace’s history, it’s even more exciting. It’s exciting to play these matches, go to all these places and to progress through all the rounds.
“We’ve already seen it with the other two trophies last year: to reach the final in Leipzig, I think, would be something beautiful for the club.”
He pauses for a moment, reconsidering his answer: “In fact, our goal is not just to reach the Final.
“We want to play it, we want to win it, and we want to bring that trophy back to all the Crystal Palace fans.
“For all the support and encouragement that they give us, in every single match, they deserve it.”
