Comments:
League position: 6th Ralf Rangnick became the sixth German manager in the Premier League (also Felix Magath, Jürgen Klopp, Jan Siewert, Daniel Farke and Thomas Tuchel) and the first to win his first game in charge. This was the first time that United had kept a clean sheet in their last 16 home games in all competitions; their only longer such run was 21 games from April 1958 to March 1959. The Red Devils had now won consecutive games in all competitions for the second time in the 2021-22 season.0 Crystal Palace
