Standard Sport assesses the individual performances from Manchester United's 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
United's victory at Palace may have been unconvincing, but Louis van Gaal's men will not mind after edging closer to a Champions League return.
The visitors arrived at Selhurst Park on the back of three defeats without so much as a goal, keeping alive Liverpool's slim hopes of wrestling fourth place.
And there will have been a renewed sense of optimism on Merseyside when Jason Puncheon cancelled out Juan Mata's dubious opener, yet United rode their luck to triumph as Marouane Fellaini capitalised on a collision between Julian Speroni and Damien Delaney.
The 78th-minute header was a sucker punch for Alan Pardew's side, who had responded so impressively after Mata coolly slotted home a first-half penalty.
