Ralf Rangnick’s reign at Manchester United got off to a winning start thanks to a stunning strike from Fred to beat Crystal Palace 1-0 at Old Trafford this past Sunday. Watch the new United boss’ post-match conference here.

A bright start from the Red Devils fizzled out without reward and the German looked like he might have to settle for a disappointing draw in his first match since taking charge until the end of the season.

But Fred, who had been a target for much of the criticism towards the end of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s time as manager, produced a moment of magic with a curling effort on his weaker right foot 13 minutes from time to snatch a crucial victory.

“Overall, I’m more than happy,” said Rangnick. “I was positively surprised by the physical state and the intensity of the first half hour. The only thing that was missing was scoring one, two or even three goals.

“It was clear you cannot play the whole game in this kind of intensity level. In the end we deserved to win, I’m more than happy with the clean sheet and a beautiful goal.”
