Roy Hodgson made Premier League history when his Crystal Palace side pulled off a shock victory at Manchester United on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Joachim Andersen\u2019s sublime strike was enough for Palace to beat United 1-0 at Old Trafford, and condemn the Red Devils to yet another defeat.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s another huge setback for Erik ten Hag, and a hugely surprising result given that the Eagles were humbled by United 3-0 just five days earlier in the Carabao Cup.<\/p>\n

It also meant that Hodgson has become the first manager in history to go unbeaten in five consecutive Premier League games at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

The run started back in 2018 with a goalless draw and continued with 2-1 and 3-1 wins for the South Londoners, before the 76-year-old was replaced by Patrick Vieira in 2021.<\/p>\n

He kept the streak going with another goalless draw while in charge of Watford in February 2022, which has now been followed by this most recent victory.<\/p>\n

\u2018The way the players went about the game today is really praise worthy and has given me enormous pleasure,\u2019 the former England boss told BBC Match of the Day.<\/p>\n
