Manchester United: 2019/20 Premier League season preview

Patrick Van Aanholt struck in stoppage time to give Crystal Palace their first league win at Old Trafford since 1989 as they beat Manchester United 2-1.

Moments after Daniel James struck an 88th minute equaliser for a frustrated United side, Van Aanholt gobbled up a loose ball inside the area and powered it past David De Gea.

Jordan Ayew had capitalised on a defensive mistake to put Palace 1-0 up in the 32nd minute and United were then left to rue a second costly penalty miss of the week as Marcus Rashford cannoned a shot off the inside of the post.

It was harsh on United, who enjoyed more than 70 per cent of possession and had 22 shots at Vicente Guaita's goal, but Palace will not care as they collected their first win of the season.

Take a look at the gallery below to see how we rated the players at Old Trafford.
