'We need to move forward' - Ruben Amorim looks ahead after Manchester United loss to Crystal PalacePA

Manchester United suffered another "really disppointing" loss on Sunday, according to Ruben Amorim.

The Red Devils were blanked 2-0 by visiting Crystal Palace at Old Trafford, powered by a pair of goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta. It was a result that allowed Palace to leapfrog United in the standings, with Amorim's side now sitting in 13th place.

Despite the disappointment of the result, Amorim urged his side to take the good elements from the match and look forward, as they attempt to turn around a "hard" season.

"During the game, I felt that the team did some things well," the United manager told BBC Match of the Day. "We suffered two goals that we can avoid, which is really disappointing today.

"We take some things from the performance but not the result. It is a hard season at this moment, the players try different things to improve. We need to move forward.

"We had more possession, more connections, we created chances but we couldn't score and that was the difference today."
