30 September 2023 at 18:00 Manchester United stumbled again – losing four out of seven league games Manchester United can’t make it to the Premier League. On Saturday, the team lost 0-1 at home against Crystal Palace. It was the second straight home defeat at Old Trafford. Until recently, United had gone more than a year without defeat in their own big room. Offensively, it was very difficult for Erik ten Hag’s men. In overtime, substitute Alejandro Garnacho had a great chance, but the shot went through a Palace player and into the corner. The guests from London took the lead after a wild volley from Joachim Andersen. A free kick ended up with the Dane in the 25th minute, and on the half bounce he sent the ball into the crossbar. There was a lot of defensive work for the visitors for the rest of the match, but it is a task Roy Hodgson’s men master well. The guests stood up well for the drive from Manchester United. The home team’s frustration spread throughout the second half. The United players shouted for a penalty after just under an hour when a ball hit Joel Ward in the hand. VAR did not intervene and assessed the situation so that the Palace defender had his arm in a natural position. At 0-0, Rasmus Højlund was very close to his first Premier League goal. He lifted the ball over Palace’s keeper, but only to see the effort cleared on the line. Manchester United have lost four out of seven league games this autumn. In midweek there was a 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace in the league cup. (NTB)
