Premier League: Michael Olise Force Man United To Draw At Crystal Palace


Manchester United progression to the second place of the table has been hampered as they were left disappointed by an injury time comeback from Crystal Palace that forced a 1-1 draw. 

Palace, from the start have proven to be a tough side, and even after falling behind United from Bruno Fernandes' strike late into the first half, they yet seized a late opportunity from a free-kick taking by Michael Oliseh to get a draw. 

United moved up in the lead when Fernandes curled home from closed range Christian Eriksen's cross after the Danish forward did a one-two pass with Marcus Rashford. 

Red Devils' hope of making away with their 10th consecutive wins was eventually dashed in the injury time as Olishe's 25-yard free-kick beat David de Gea to the goal and Palace equalized the scoring. 

Right from the start Palace had signaled off their resilience to make something out of the game when Odsonne Edouard's strike clipped the woodwork and on another ocassion in the second half when David de Gea saved a close range header from Marc Guehi.
