25 min: Palace are being bossed in the midfield right now. Jones strides through it, practically unchallenged, and rolls a pass straight down the middle for Mata. The Spaniard looks to twist and guide the ball into the bottom right, from the edge of the area. He doesn’t get enough purchase on the ball. Otherwise that could have been 0-2.
 
26 min: And this was nearly 1-1. Corner for Palace down the right, after Jones confuses himself. Jedinak meets the set piece, coming in from the left, rising above Blind to send a stunning header towards the top-right corner. If it was on target, it was breaking the net, but it’s a tad high and wide. Not missed by much, though.
 
28 min: Palace are creating chances now. A free kick in the middle of the United half, just to the left of goal. It’s looped into the area, towards the right. Dann rises and heads down to the penalty spot, where Murray awaits. He’s in acres of space - United’s back line is in tatters! - but the header goes just behind him, and neither he nor Zaha can rescue the situation. A training-ground set piece which nearly came off in spectacular style.
 
30 min: Another free kick for Palace, this time out on the right. Ward balloons it into the area, allowing De Gea an easy catch.
 
33 min: Murray, in a tight position on the right, slips a gorgeous ball inside, through a forest of United legs, to release Ward into the box. Ward battles with Fellaini, tracking back, and is outmuscled. The Palace fans, more than the players, scream for a penalty kick. The decisions aren’t going their way, but unfortunately for those supporters, the decisions have all been correct so far.

32 min: Young is getting pelters every time he touches the ball. The Palace fans aren’t letting the penalty decision go, correct though it was. The away support hit back with a chorus of Ooh Ah Cantona.
 
35 min: Bolasie makes off down the right. He kicks the ball onto his other leg, and falls over. Goal kick. He has the good grace to smile in good humour as he picks himself up off the floor.
 
38 min: Shaw is down receiving attention, having taken a whack in the face from McArthur’s arm while challenging the player from behind. It looked totally accidental. There’s a fair bit of blood dripping from Shaw’s nose, and he looks very, very groggy indeed. He’ll not be continuing, as first the doctor, then the stretcher, comes on.
 
Doh! Dogo Shaw ndiyo hivyo tena..anarudi kliniki!! Sijui kafanyaje hapa....naona alikumbana na kiwiko cha mchezaji wa Palace kwa bahati mbaya...
Mentor njoo umuone mdudu huku?
