OLD TRAFFORD, MANCHESTER — Manchester United battled to a 13th consecutive home win in all competitions as they beat Crystal Palace 2-1.
The Red Devils appeared to be easing to victory after Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford scored in each half to give them a comfortable lead.
However, after Casemiro was shown a straight red card for violent conduct, Jeffrey Schlupp’s instinctive finish got the visitors back in the contest and made for a nervy final quarter of the game at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag’s men showed good game management to get through more than eight minutes of added time and claim what could prove to be three valuable points.

Ten Hag made a change in the second half, moving Rashford down the middle as Alejandro Garnacho replaced Wout Weghorst, and the tweak paid off as the teenager was involved in a fine passing sequence that ended with Rashford prodding home Luke Shaw’s cross.
Having had the game under their command, United suddenly handed Palace a lifeline — almost literally — as Casemiro was shown red following a lengthy VAR review
