Manchester United won 2-1 against Crystal Palace in their Premier League clash at Old Trafford after goals from Bruno Fernandes and Benjamin Šeško.
Despite heading into the game in fine form, Manchester United started very poorly and were punished in the opening minutes after Maxence Lacroix scored from a corner.
Michael Carrick’s side came out in the second half much improved and won a penalty early on after great work from Matheus Cunha and Bruno Fernandes.
Lacroix was also sent off for the foul, and Fernandes slotted in the penalty to equalise. Soon afterwards, he delivered a perfect cross to Benjamin Šeško, who headed in for the eventual winner.

United player ratings vs Crystal Palace
Senne Lammens – 6/10
Couldn’t do much about the goal, good otherwise.
Diogo Dalot – 5/10
Too many lazy passes in the first-half. Slightly improved in the second period.
Leny Yoro – 6/10
Lost his man in the box for the opener and was nervy early on. Improved throughout the game.
Harry Maguire – 8/10
One of United’s better players throughout.
Luke Shaw – 5/10
Subbed off early after an injury. He’ll be hoping it’s nothing serious.
Casemiro – 7/10
Awkward first-half but much better in the second.
Kobbie Mainoo – 7/10
A solid display in the middle of the park.
Bryan Mbeumo – 6/10
Made some good runs but didn’t have much joy in this clash.
Bruno Fernandes – 9/10
United’s captain turned up big in this one. Great pass to Cunha for the penalty, which he then converted. Then played a perfect cross to Šeško for the winner.
Matheus Cunha – 7/10
Poor first half but much better after the break. Won the penalty and looked dangerous when moving wider.
Benjamin Šeško – 8/10
Not many chances but took one brilliantly with a bullet header to keep his scoring run going.
