Manchester United came from behind to beat 10-man Crystal Palace 2–1 on Sunday afternoon and climb up to the heady heights of third place in the Premier League table for the first time since 2023.
Despite their impressive recent form, Man Utd entered half time behind after a tepid performance was punished by Maxence Lacroix’s fourth-minute header from a corner. The hosts were unable to issue any response before the break as they struggled to carve Palace open.
