Crystal Palace 2 Manchester United 3This game had drifted into stoppage time at the end when Nemanja Matic, a player whose performance had drifted at times, collected a clearance well outside the Crystal Palace area, waited for the ball to bounce and belted a glorious volley at goal. The ball swerved viciously, arcing away from Wayne Hennessey, and Manchester United – improbably, if ultimately impressively, had plucked a victory from the dregs. Patrick van Aanholt scores Crystal Palace’s second against Manchester United. Romelu Lukaku celebrates scoring Manchester United’s equaliser against Crystal Palace. For a few minutes Palace basked in breathing space, but United were never likely to allow them that luxury for long.
