PLAYER RATINGS: Man Utd VS Crystal Palace: Two Man United flops score just 3/10
Manchester United's hopes of qualifying for Europe were dealt a major blow after Erik ten Hag's suffered a crushing 4-0 defeat at Crystal Palace.
Michael Olise set the Eagles on their way for a third consecutive home win in the Premier League by finishing from the edge of the box after a mazy run.
