Crystal Palace and Manchester United have just played out a 0-0 draw which may go down as the most boring game in Premier League history.
United arrived at Selhurst Park on the back of two 0-0 draws against Real Sociedad and Chelsea respectively.
Palace, meanwhile, drew 0-0 with Fulham at the weekend and surely that means both teams would've been up for it tonight?
Not exactly. Both sides had a shot on target each and fans at home struggled to watch the action through a thick fog.
Shame there isn't enough fog to make this game unwatchable... pic.twitter.com/jZfTqa1eQd

In the second half, Dan James had a chance from a header while Mason Greenwood saw his effort from outside the box go just wide.
Patrick van Aanholt had a chance to snatch a win for the Eagles in the 89th minute but Dean Henderson made a vital save.
But neither side did enough to win the game and a 0-0 draw is probably what they deserved.
Fans watching at home have reacted to the game and even without the fog, they all agree it wouldn't have been the prettiest of games to watch.
Thankful for the fog. Atleast I can't see this sh*t clearly

Can you imagine if that fog thickens enough for the game to be called off and they have to come back and do this to us again? It's enough to make you believe in a vengeful god.

Hope the fog gets worse so I don't have to see anymore of this shite.

When having an obstructed view of a football match is actually a positive thing...
Thank fog

MOTM goes to the fog, for at least covering up some of the dire f*cking crap I have endured for the past 83 minutes...
