Defeating the Red Devils against the Eagles, with West Ham United beating Brighton at the same time, would be a disaster for the club from Old Trafford.
This scenario means Manchester United relegated to seventh place in the table. This deposit only guarantees participation in the ECA.
Crystal Palace – Manchester United
In the opening minutes of the match at Selhurst Park, Manchester United struggled to find the home side’s goal path. A quarter of an hour later, the Red Devils hadn’t given an accurate shot, and it was just a preview of their real problems.
Crystal Palace was handling more confidently, while the visitors were constantly grappling with their persistent problem – the lack of a well-organised defence. In the 37th minute, the penalty kick for Manchester United was very painful, as Wilfried Zaha scored the goal. The former football player “Red Devils” took advantage of the dispute in the defense of his opponents Sunday in cold blood.
In the second half, the image of the Manchester United match did not improve. Erik ten Hag, who watched the match from the stands, must have been disappointed by the attitude of his players who were unable to threaten the Crystal Palace goal in any way. The “Eagles” confidently and skillfully defended themselves, constantly repelling all offensive attempts of their rivals.
The result of the match did not change until the last whistle of the referee. Manchester United lost 1-0, but retained sixth place in the table. All because of the result of the West Ham United match.

Brighton – West Ham United
The start of WHU’s last game of the season was pretty easy. Łukasz Fabiański was called back only in the 15th minute, when he confidently handled Solly March’s shot.
The same cannot be said by the opponent on the other side of the field. West Ham United didn’t push Brighton with all his might, but when Michail Antonio shot in the 40th minute, his jaws probably shattered to the ground.
The atomic influence of Jamaica was invaluable to The Hammers. It not only led to a match against a strong opponent, but also, quite unexpectedly, opened the door to sixth place in the Premier League table.
Unfortunately, the other half splashed out plans of interest to David Moyes. ukasz Fabiański, who misbehaved when shocked by Joel Feltman, had a notorious role in these events. The Polish goalkeeper did not save a relatively direct shot that passed over his body and crossed the goal line at the end.
In the 80th minute, West Ham United’s hopes of next season’s Europa League were dashed. Pascal Gross had a great shot at the time – this time Fabiansky had nothing to say.
The outcome of the meeting was settled by Danny Welbeck. The England striker found his best in the penalty area after taking a corner kick and defeating the Polish goalkeeper “The Hammers” who cannot be considered the best of his career this afternoon.
A 1: 3 The defeat prevented West Ham United from moving from seventh place. Next season, David Moyes’ players will play in the European Conference League.
3-1
