Yet they were unable to make their dominance count and having failed to find the net at Selhurst, the visitors responded two times in quick succession via the Dutch forward plus the former Chelsea player.

Frustrating Day for The Eagles

Post-Interval Turnaround

The goalkeeper returned wearing a cap to shield his eyes from the low sun but he will be disappointed to have allowed United to level the score following halftime.

Glasner's team was unprepared by a quick Bruno Fernandes free-kick and Zirkzee was able to bring under control and pivot in one motion to produce a shot that sailed into the far corner.

Decisive Strike

After enduring a chaotic situation when the Dutchman nearly netted once more in his own net, their afternoon got even better shortly afterward while Zirkzee was brought down outside the penalty area by the English center-back.

A temporary uncertainty developed among the defenders during Fernandes' delivery the free-kick to Mount and that allowed him to beat Henderson using a fierce strike.

Vital Win

Without Sarr's pace to utilize, Palace could barely muster additional opportunities while the visitors managed to see out an important win elevating Manchester United leapfrog the Eagles up to sixth spot.
