Wilfried Zaha netted the only goal of the game at Selhurst Park, which saw Ralf Rangnick's final match as interim manager end in defeat.

Inside the final 10 minutes, there were calls for a penalty to United as Cavani appeared to be hauled down in the box – but appeals were waved away and there was no VAR intervention either. Into the final 30 minutes of the season and the Reds were continuing to search for a leveller. At the other end, Zaha was continuing to cause problems, dragging a shot wide of the post. The resulting set-play saw Scott McTominay left with a free hear at the back post – but he could only direct his effort right at the keeper. David De Gea was then forced into a couple of smart saves from the Palace left, first from Wilfried Zaha and then Jeffrey Schlupp, but the Spaniard dealt with both efforts comfortably. At the start of the second period, an early chance came United’s way when Cavani was fouled in Palace territory.
