Manchester United vs Crystal Palace
That's all from Old Trafford, so thank you for joining us and goodbye!
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace
After being booed off by many of their fans today, Man United will tackle the third of four successive home games when Champions League opponents Galatasaray arrive in Manchester on Tuesday; meanwhile, Palace can reflect on their success for a while before meeting Nottingham Forest next weekend.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace
Consigning Manchester United to consecutive Premier League defeats at Old Trafford, Crystal Palace put in a performance of great discipline and resilience to move above their hosts in the table. While Palace celebrate a famous victory - thanks to Andersen's fine first-half strike - the Red Devils' are enduring an awful start to their 2023-24 campaign. They lacked any kind of rhythm or even belief today, and deservedly taste defeat for the fourth time in six games.

Guehi makes a last-gasp block on Garnacho's shot, using his chest to stop the ball. Palace are hangng on in there, but can they hold out until the final whistle?
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace
Tight to the right byline, Ayew drives a low cross-shot straight at Maguire, sending the ball behind for a Crystal Palace corner. It actually struck Maguire's arm, but there was nothing he could do about it - there's no real question of a penalty being awarded.

Sending the ball harmlessly wide of the right-hand post, Casemiro's mishit shot leaves Johnstone a spectator. Surely the home side can come up with one more clear chance before limping to what would be a tame home loss?
