CRYSTAL PALACE AND MANCHESTER UNITED BATTLE TO GOALESS DRAW

Manchester United extended their club-record unbeaten away run to 21 Premier League matches as they earned a 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace.

Man Utd controlled the early proceedings, and a deflected strike from 25 yards out by Nemanja Matic was superbly tipped around the post by Vicente Guaita.

The visitors passed up two further chances in the first half, as Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood both fired wide.

Palace responded after the break with Andros Townsend’s volley off target, while Greenwood shot just over from distance.

The home side could have won it in the 90th minute, but Patrick van Aanholt’s close-range effort was saved by Dean Henderson, starting in the absence of David De Gea.

Palace stay 13th on 34 points, while Man Utd are second on 51 points, 14 behind leaders Manchester City.
