EPL: Goal rain as Crystal Palace wallop Manchester United 4-0
Four goals hit Manchester United net from raging Crystal Place in the English Premier League game played on Monday at the Selhurst Park Stadium.
Like a hot knife cutting through butter, 14th place Palace seamlessly tore through Red Devils’ defence harvesting four goals.
At every goal, Selhurst Park Stadium erupted in euphoria, while Erik Ten Hag’s hope of qualifying the Red Devils for Europa bleaked.
Michael Olise inspired Palace to a great start, netting their first goal just 12 minutes into the game. A few minutes into the first half break, Jean-Philippe Mateta brilliantly beat John Evans, doubling Palace lead into the break.
Manchester United returned into the second half with high hopes. But Palace never relented in their push, netting two more goals to grab three points.
Early into the second half, Tyrick Mitchell made it three for Palace, dashing Red Devils hope of a comeback.
But the Palace were not done. Olise’s 66th minute goal wrapped up the game, leaving United 8th position on the EPL log.
The final whistle came as a huge relief for United players and their frustrated fans who might resume calls for Hag’s sack.
