Anderson’s sweet finish gave Palace a 1-0 at Old Trafford and piled more misery on Erik ten Hag.

“It was unbelievable to win at Old Trafford”, said Andersen.

“That goal is something I’ll remember. It’s something that I need to improve on. I need to score more goals because I’m capable of scoring goals. I have the desire to score. I think I have a pretty good strike actually. I hit it really well. Amazing goal!”

Palace have made a strong start to the season under Roy Hodgson and face Nottingham Forest at home on Saturday before the international break.

Palace goalkeeper Sam Johnstone said: “We put a great team performance in, stuck to our plan and we got the rewards.

“It wasn’t going to be easy at a place like this. They’re a good team and good players, but we worked really hard and the result went our way, which was brilliant.

“It was a weird one, coming here on Tuesday and then again on a Saturday, but we probably didn’t put the correct performance in on Tuesday and we wanted to put that behind us, put it right and show everyone that we’re a better team than we showed on Tuesday.

“We worked hard. The lads dug in. it was tough, but we got the result, which makes it better."
