Crystal Palace condemned Manchester United to a miserable start to their Premier League campaign.

An early goal from Andros Townsend and a brace from Wilfried Zaha led the Eagles to successive wins at the start of a season for the first time in their history.

Referee Martin Atkinson used the VAR TV monitor to decide Victor Lindelof had handled inside his own box. But, after David de Gea thought he had saved Jordan Ayew’s spot-kick, Atkinson ordered a retake because the Spain international had moved off his line.

Former Man United boy, Zaha took responsibility for the second attempt and made no mistake.

Manchester United new signing, Donny van de Beek, making his debut pulled one back 10 minutes from time but Zaha struck again against his former club sealed a deserved victory for Palace.

It was their biggest ever win at Old Trafford, the first time they have beaten United away from home in successive seasons and extended Palace’s remarkable undefeated run in away games against the two Manchester clubs to five.
