Sesko And Fernandes Get 8 | Manchester United Players Rated In Hard-Fought Win Vs Crystal Palace | OneFootball

Manchester United entertained Crystal Palace at Old Trafford earlier today as they hoped to secure a good result at home in the Premier League. The Red Devils made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the fourth minute when Maxence Lacroix found the back of the net. Man United went into the half-time break 1-0 down on the scoreline.

Lacroix was sent off by the referee in the 56th minute before Bruno Fernandes equalised from the penalty spot a minute later.  Benjamin Sesko put his team 2-1 ahead in the 65th minute as Michael Carrick’s men earned a hard-fought 2-1 win at the Theatre of Dreams.
