MANCHESTER UNITED fell to their 11th Prem defeat of the season as Crystal Palace leapfrogged them in the table.
Ruben Amorim’s gamble of starting Kobbie Mainoo in attack did not pay off, although Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zrikzee failed to change things after coming on.

Mateta then finished United off int he 89th minute after bursting through on goal with Daniel Munoz.
United’s woe deepened when Lisandro Martinez went off in tears on a stretcher.
The Argentina centre-back appeared to have suffered a serious knee injury following a challenge with Palace winger Ismaila Sarr.
