Man Utd suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, severely damaging their chances of qualifying for European competitions.

Crystal Palace delivered a stunning performance as they thrashed Manchester United 4-0, piling more pressure on their beleaguered manager Erik ten Hag. Under the guidance of new boss Oliver Glasner, the Eagles showcased their progress and dominance on the pitch.

The first half saw Crystal Palace take control with two incisive goals from Michael Olise and Jean-Philippe Mateta. Exploiting a makeshift United defence that included Casemiro at centre-back, the Eagles capitalized on their opponent’s vulnerabilities. The situation only worsened for the visitors in the second half.

Tyrick Mitchell added a third goal, further extending Crystal Palace’s lead. The standout performer, Olise, then secured his brace and Palace’s fourth goal, capitalizing on a disastrous piece of defending from Casemiro.

This victory holds significant importance for Crystal Palace as they achieved their first-ever league double over the Red Devils. Additionally, it pushed Ten Hag’s team’s goal difference into negative figures, highlighting the magnitude of their triumph.

On the other hand, this defeat leaves Manchester United in eighth place, outside of the European places, with only three games remaining. Their next challenge comes in the form of a daunting match against Arsenal on Sunday. The pressure is mounting for United as they strive to salvage their season and secure a European spot.
