Crystal Palace faced off Manchester United at home on Monday at the Selhurst Park Stadium. The Eagles have been in good form in the last five matches winning 3 out of 5. The Red Devils were missing their captain Bruno Fernandes in the game and the injury list adds on for the side.

Tryick Mitchell made it three for the side after Joachim Anderson pass ended up with an open chacne for him and Olise added his name again after scoring in the 66th minute.

Eze delivered another excellent performance. He may be overshadowed with how his teammate Olise played tonight, but he had plenty of opportunities to show everyone how dangerous he can be.
