Michael Olise shines as Crystal Palace secure historic victory over Manchester United, intensifying pressure on Erik ten Hag.
In a match where a makeshift United defense, featuring Casemiro at center-back, struggled to contain Palace’s attacks, Olise’s brace, along with goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta and Tyrick Mitchell, sealed a resounding 4-0 win at Selhurst Park.
With United languishing in eighth place and their European hopes dwindling, the defeat underscores their season’s struggles. Despite missing key players like Bruno Fernandes due to injury, United failed to mount a significant challenge.
This defeat marks United’s 13th loss of the Premier League season, highlighting their woes under Ten Hag’s leadership. Meanwhile, Palace, rejuvenated under new manager Oliver Glasner, continue to impress.
Olise’s clinical finishing, coupled with Mateta’s attacking prowess, exposed United’s defensive vulnerabilities, leaving Ten Hag’s side reeling. As the season nears its end, United’s woes persist, while Palace’s resurgence under Glasner continues to gather momentum.
