Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag hailed David de Gea after his wonder save last night.

During the 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace, De Gea denied Odsonne Edouard with a spectacular finger tip save.

Ten Hag said, “A great save. I think that was the only chance Crystal Palace produced. I think we had a couple of good opportunities and we scored a great goal. In the second half, I think it was the same: we had control of the game, but I think we have to invest more for the second. If you then score [for] 2-0, the game is over. Now you get hammered with an unlucky moment in the end.

“If you concede a goal two minutes, or one minute, before [the end], then it's difficult to react, though we had a chance to score for 2-1 with Casemiro. But that's what it is and we have to take the lesson. [We needed to] invest more for the second goal."

On Wout Weghorst's debut, Ten Hag added: “I think he did quite well. I think of course he has to make adjustments to his game, to our game – he doesn't know our way of play. It was a really short briefing to bring him in. Less training, no games, so [it was the] first time [he had] a couple of days here. I think he did quite well in all the elements of football."
