Fantastic tackle from Adam Wharton to slide in on Rasmus Hojlund from behind/the side and win the ball.

Is Aaron Wan-Bissaka the least comfortable footballer in the league? The guy rarely looks comfortable with the ball at his feet and his ball control and passing is absolutely terrible.

"As always" doing some heavy lifting there.

Once again lots of overreaction to Man United going a goal down. This is classic Ten Hag rope-a-dope. United will find a way to win, as always. You don't spend the season in the top 6 without having that bit of class when it matters.

Andre Onana pumps a long ball up the pitch for the furthest man forward... full-back Diogo Dalot. Palace deal with it though.

Antony plays a through ball for Rasmus Hojlund, who hasn't made that run. The United winger is frustrated.
At the other end Andre Onana comes out of his box and clears (at the second or third attempt).

Palace defender Joachim Andersen chops down Denmark team-mate Rasmus Hojlund. Just a free-kick, no card.

Palace almost make it 2-0 seconds later. Dean Henderson pumps the ball long, Kobbie Mainoo makes a mess of it and Michael Olise tries to go round Andre Onana, who does enough to stop the forward.

Alan Smith
Former Arsenal forward on Sky SportsRasmus Hojlund with the challenge on him. A little shove on him. If that's two outfield players, I think you get away with that, but as it's a goalkeeper it is different. I think Henderson gets away with one, he was not strong enough there.
DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 27 mins
Crystal Palace 1-0 Man Utd
United have the ball in the net but it's ruled out.
Casemiro's looping header goes over Dean Henderson's head and lands in the back of the net.
But the decision is Rasmus Hojlund fouled Henderson as they both went up for the ball. Hmmmm.

Christian Eriksen is like an architect trying to move everyone to where he wants them for this free-kick.
His shot hits the wall and goes out for a corner.

Alejandro Garnacho wins a free-kick in a good position for United. Will Hughes sticks a leg out and the winger says yes please and goes down.

Never mind Eze and Mainoo, Olise is the man Southgate should bring into the fold. So underrated for his output per game this season.
Ben from Bournemouth
Although he was born in London, Michael Olise's only international football to date has come for France, playing for them nine times at youth level.

Daniel Munoz looks very handy down the right for Palace. His cross lands to Tyrick Mitchell on the other flank.
He finds Michael Olise, whose 16-yard effort is saved by Andre Onana.

Crystal Palace 1-0 Man Utd
A huge chance for Crystal Palace to double their lead. United give Palace time and space again and Daniel Munoz picks out Michael Olise in the box.
Olise shoots towards the bottom corner but it hits the feet of his own team-mate Jean-Philippe Mateta and that's a let-off for the Red Devils.

Mason Mount tries to feed Rasmus Hojlund in the box but the Dane doesn't get a touch and it goes to Dean Henderson.

United players to Olise: "If we back off you and let you score, will you come and play for us next season?" Olise: "Err maybe."

Match Facts
Crystal Palace won 1-0 against Manchester United at Old Trafford earlier this campaign – the Eagles have never completed a league double over the Red Devils.
Manchester United won eight of their first 11 away Premier League games against Crystal Palace (D3) but are winless in their last three (D2 L1).
Manchester United have lost four away Premier League matches in London this season, losing to Spurs, Arsenal, West Ham and Chelsea. They have never lost five away league games in the capital in a single season before.
Manchester United have lost eight of their last 14 away Premier League matches in the month of May (W3 D3), with one of those a 1-0 defeat at Selhurst Park in 2022 under Ralf Rangnick.
Crystal Palace have won both of their last two Premier League games at Selhurst Park, last winning three in a row at home in the competition in October 2022. The Eagles have won as many of their five home Premier League games under Oliver Glasner this season (W3 D1 L1) as their 12 such matches under Roy Hodgson beforehand in 2023-24 (W3 D3 L6).
Manchester United have shipped 77 goals in 47 games all competitions this season, their most in a season since 1977-78 (80). Their current ratio of conceding (1.64 goals-per-game) is their worst since the 1962-63 campaign (1.75 per game).
Manchester United have both scored and conceded in each of their last eight Premier League away games – only once have they had a longer such run in the competition, doing so in nine consecutive games between May and November 2001.
Despite only starting five matches and playing 485 minutes at Selhurst Park this season, only Jean-Philippe Mateta (8 goals, 2 assists) has had a hand in more Crystal Palace goals at home in the Premier League than Michael Olise (4 goals, 4 assists). Indeed, across his last eight home league starts, Olise has scored four and assisted seven.
Jean-Phillipe Mateta has scored in each of his five home Premier League appearances under Oliver Glasner (seven goals), having only netted in five out of his first 37 home matches for Crystal Palace beforehand (five goals). The last player to score in his first six home appearances under one manager in the competition was Alan Shearer for Kevin Keegan in 1996-97 (first nine).
In April, Bruno Fernandes created 31 chances in his six appearances in all competitions for Manchester United, seven more than any other Premier League player. He created nine chances in each of his last two Premier League appearances (vs Sheffield United and Burnley), becoming the only player on record to create 9+ chances in consecutive matches (2003-04 onwards).
