Manchester United dominated but failed to convert their chances, as Erik ten Hag's men settled for a 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Manchester United failed to capitalise on their midweek 7-0 win over Barnsley as they dropped points at Selhurst Park to continue their inconsistent start to the season.
The first big chance arrived after Joshua Zirkzee played Alejandro Garnacho through on goal, but the Argentine was denied by ex-United stopper Dean Henderson. The Palace goalkeeper was on top form as minutes later he denied Matthijs de Ligt’s header from point-blank range.
The Red Devils would have been left frustrated not to go into the break with a goal but once again Henderson denied Garnacho after Zirkzee’s flick-on from a Bruno Fernandes cross.

Despite United’s domination with the ball, Palace always posed a danger on the counterattack, with Eberechi Eze gifted a great opening just before the break but his finish was tame, and comfortably gathered by Andre Onana.
Oliver Glasner made a bold double substitution at halftime, introducing Ismaïla Sarr and Jefferson Lerma to inject fresh energy into Crystal Palace's attack.
The changes nearly paid off immediately, as Sarr combined seamlessly with Eberechi Eze, whose shot was blocked but sparked a lively spell that lifted the Selhurst Park crowd.
United went close through Bruno Fernandes but his effort went wide of the post and while the visitors probed and dominated, Palace held firm to secure what could prove to be a valuable point.
