Manchester United’s woeful home form this season continued as they slumped to a 2-0 defeat by Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday.
Despite United chasing a fourth successive win in all competitions, Palace were much the better side in the first half at Old Trafford, passing up several chances to capitalise on their superiority.
- Arsenal crush Man City to stay firmly in title hunt
- Kano Pillars’ coach Abdallah suspended over poor results
The visitors did make one count after 64 minutes, Jean-Philippe Mateta reacting first after the ball had come off the crossbar to give his side a deserved lead.
Mateta then condemned the hosts to a seventh home league loss this term with a late second, helping Palace climb above 13th-placed United into 12th in the standings.
