Hodgson breaks Palace record with Manchester Utd win

When Patrick van Aanholt buried late into David de Gea's goal on Saturday afternoon, he earned Crystal Palace a historic victory and also helped Roy Hodgson to set a new record for the Eagles.

Coming as the manager's 75th Premier League game in charge of the south Londoners, victory over the Red Devils was Hodgson's 25th league win whilst with the red and blues, a new club record.

Hodgson overtook Alan Pardew as the record holder, with the former Palace player earning his last win as Eagles boss against Southampton on 3rd December 2016.

The clash with United was also Palace's first league win against the club since 1991 and saw Hodgson's men become the first side in history to net a 90th-minute winner at Old Trafford.
