With the financial implications of failing to reach the Champions League certain to be painful for United, Solskjaer’s men will be under intense pressure in their final two league games. Rashford broke the deadlock in first-half stoppage-time when the England forward cleverly deceived two Palace defenders with a drag-back and slotted home from close range.
Palace were denied again in the second half when Jordan Ayew’s goal was ruled out for offside by VAR.– Leicester bounce back – The Spaniard started the attack with a pass wide to Luke Thomas and took the return ball before drilling low past Dean Henderson from just inside the penalty area.The Foxes face a tense run-in as they bid to return to the Champions League for the first time since 2016-17.“I thought we were brilliant. The result gives us the second highest finish in Leicester’s history,” Rodgers said.
But Theo Walcott brought Everton level in the 87th minute when his looping header was ruled to have crossed the line despite Konsa’s despairing attempt to clear.
