Maya Le Tissier marked her 150th club appearance with a stunning strike as Manchester United moved fourth in the WSL with a dominant 2-0 win over Crystal Palace.
Le Tissier cracked in the opening goal from around 25 yards out to give United the lead during a first half they spent almost entirely on the front foot.
Battling Palace made it trickier for their hosts after the break but were undone too easily for the second, when Hinata Miyazawa and Jess Park combined to play in Elisabeth Terland for a clinical finish.
United will feel they should have taken more from a game which saw them rack up 22 shots but hit the target just three times, with Lea Schuller wastefully lobbing wide late on.

The win was never in doubt, though, with goal-scorer Le Tissier repeatedly snuffing out counter-attacks from a Palace side who failed to test United goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce at all.
With United on the rise ahead of the later kick-offs, Palace stay 11th.
