September 21, (THEWILL) – Manchester United drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace in their Saturday English Premier League match at Selhurst Park. The visitors controlled much of the game but failed to convert their chances into goals.
United hit the woodwork twice in the first half through Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes. Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson, facing his former club, made several important saves to deny United’s attackers.
The home side nearly stole a win late on, with Andre Onana saving well from Ismaila Sarr before Eberechi Eze missed a good opportunity. The result leaves Palace 16th in the table, while United sit 11th after an inconsistent start to the 2024/2025 season.
Erik ten Hag will be frustrated not to take all three points given United’s dominance. However, the performance showed improvement from last season’s 4-0 defeat in the same fixture.
Oliver Glasner’s Palace remain without a league win but will be pleased with a hard-fought point against a strong opponent. The result gives them a two-point buffer above the relegation places as they look to climb the table.
