'The only one who can make that tackle'

Michael Olise’s 90th-minute free-kick levelled the scores at 1-1 between Palace and United at Selhurst Park, after Bruno Fernandes had fired home in the first half.

That wasn’t the end of the drama in south London though, with the Reds twice coming close to regaining the lead during the four minutes of time added on by referee Robert Jones.

As the game raced towards its denouement, Zaha was played through by Eberechi Eze’s pass and the Ivorian forward found himself running towards United’s goal, seemingly with only David De Gea to beat.

A second Palace goal would have been a hammer blow for Erik ten Hag’s side at the culmination of a game we dominated for large parts, but, fortunately, Aaron brilliantly recovered from his foray forward, matching Zaha stride-for-stride before executing a perfectly timed challenge on his former team-mate.
