The Sweden centre-back has returned from international duty with his country, when he was withdrawn at half-time during the Turkey game with 'flu-like symptoms, but then scored against Russia in midweek.
Back in a red shirt, he produced another polished performance against Palace and was one of the hosts' star men on a disappointing afternoon at Old Trafford.
During the end of the stalemate, he appeared to pull up with a hamstring injury but soldiered on immediately, winning the ball in stoppage time, and refusing to leave his team down to 10 men as all three substitutions had been made.
