Crystal Palace were defeated 3-1 at home to Manchester United.
The loss ended a run of six unbeaten games in all competitions for the Eagles who have yet to beat Manchester United in a Premier League game.
Romelu Lukaku fired United ahead on 33 minutes after left-back Luke Shaw was given the freedom to set up the striker who delivered a smart finish into the bottom corner.
Seven minutes after the break, Lukaku added another when he hooked the ball over goalkeeper Vicente Guaita.
Palace then made it 2-1 with a diving header from Joel Ward off Jeffrey Schlupp's cross on the left. Ward's last strike came against Chelsea in August 2015.
But United restored their two-goal advantage with a low strike from Ashley Young seven minutes from time.

Not used: Hennessey, Dann, Riedewald, Ayew.
Man United: De Gea, Shaw, Lindelof, Smalling, Young, Dalot (Bailly 77), Pogba, McTominay, Fred (Garner 89), Sanchez (Rashford 77), Lukaku.
