The No. 7’s inch-perfect strike from 30 yards – with his side trailing the Red Devils by a goal to nil entering stoppage time – could neither have been better-placed, nor better-timed.
Stepping up in the nick of time, Olise’s effort sailed high past David de Gea and in off the underside of the bar to secure his side a well-deserved point and send Selhurst Park into rapture.
The goal was later named Premier League Goal of the Month, and awarded the club’s equivalent prize, for January.
