Yikes! 😬 Manchester United just can't catch a break! On a night fans won't forget anytime soon, the Red Devils stumbled to a shocking 4-0 defeat against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Remember when Napoleon said, \"Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake\"? Well, Palace took that to heart! They watched United's blunders unfold like the latest binge-worthy drama. 📺
One of the most jaw-dropping moments? Casemiro lying helpless on the pitch as Michael Olise danced past him effortlessly. Ouch! Talk about adding salt to the wound. 🩹
With captain Bruno Fernandes and Harry Maguire missing in action, United's defense was as shaky as a Jenga tower in the last move. Jonny Evans and Casemiro stepped in as the 14th center-back pairing of the season, but Palace didn't waste time exploiting the new duo.
Just 13 minutes in, Olise toyed with Casemiro and broke the deadlock. Right before halftime, Evans was left in the dust as Mateta slipped by to double the lead. Double ouch! 😖
The 4-0 scoreline could've been even worse, but United was spared further humiliation. Still, this epic collapse marks a new low for the English giants. Time to regroup and rethink strategies, or as they say, back to the drawing board! 💭
