Michael Olise scored twice as Crystal Palace thrashed Man United on Monday night Olise produced two brilliant strikes to ramp up the pressure on Man United boss Erik ten Hag It was another miserable outing for Ten Hag's men as Palace ran riot at Selhurst Park They have won only twice in their last 10 Premier League outings and have now lost 13 league games this season. Olise opened the scoring with a cool finish after skipping past challenges in midfield Jean-Philippe Mateta doubled the lead with a thunderous strike after getting past Jonny Evans The United players had no answer for the Eagles in front of a delighted home crowd Casemiro found the net from a corner in the 27th minute but Hojlund had barged Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson as he jumped to take the header out of the sky. Tyrick Mitchell made it three as he finished off a good move from close range after the break Olise celebrated with Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner after netting the fourth The united players looked shell-shocked as they suffered a humiliating defeat in London Casemiro had a second goal ruled out.
