Manchester United came from behind to beat Crystal Palace 2-1 at Selhurst Park and move up to seventh in the Premier League\"OliverOliver Glasner spoke to the press after his Crystal Palace side lost to Manchester United(Image: Sebastian Frej\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has admitted he was disappointed to see his team concede from two free kicks as Manchester United<\/a> came from behind to win. The Reds were not at the races in the first half but were helped by some poor finishing from the home side.<\/p>\n

However, they went into the break behind as Leny Yoro<\/a> clumsily brought Jean-Philippe Mateta down in the area. After VAR chalked off his first penalty, the striker stepped up and wrong footed Senne Lammens again for the opener.<\/p>\n

After the interval, United were the better side as Palace tired. Their first came as Bruno Fernandes<\/a> picked out Joshua Zirkzee <\/a>in the box and he fired it beyond Dean Henderson from a tight angle.<\/p>\n

The Reds’ winner came from another free kick as Fernandes produced a little lay off for Mason Mount<\/a> to fire in. United have now leapfrogged Palace in the table and Glasner was unhappy by the manner of the goals conceded.<\/p>\n

He said: “It was a very good performance from the team in the first half. We deserved the lead [at half time].<\/p>\n

“I’m disappointed in conceding two goals from set plays. The last three goals we conceded were from set plays, from free kicks.<\/p>\n

“It feels still unnecessary [to lose the game], but we have to accept it. It’s tough, but it is the situation at the moment.<\/p>\n

“Had we kept a clean sheet we would have won. I can’t remember them creating one big chance from open play, but set plays decided the game.<\/p>\n

“That’s why they won at the end, and that makes it really tough for all of us. But, we’re still in a good position. Now it’s about keeping our heads up, sticking together and preparing for the next game on Wednesday.”<\/p>\n

Glasner’s counterpart, Ruben Amorim, joked that his side were ‘stealing’ ways to score from other sides after netting from two set-pieces.<\/p>\n

“We have more time to work and we work a lot and we are learning,” Amorim acknowledged.<\/p>\n

“We learn a lot in England. You are used to do that and see that (set-piece), but when you come to the Premier League<\/a>, you learn a lot about how other the teams do it. “And we are stealing a lot of things to score goals.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manchester United came from behind to beat Crystal Palace 2-1 at Selhurst Park and move up to seventh…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":604688,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8813],"tags":[748,22356,393,4884,2465,423,101,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-604687","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-manchester","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-crystal-palace-fc","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-great-britain","12":"tag-manchester","13":"tag-manchester-united-fc","14":"tag-premier-league","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115642679809276575","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/604687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=604687"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/604687\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/604688"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=604687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=604687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=604687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
