Manchester United beat Spurs 1-3 It was just another day at the office for Manchester United as they came from behind once again to win 3-1 against Tottenham and dent the hosts top 4 hopes with just 7 Premier League games remaining. After having a goal overturned under controversial circumstances, The Red Devils reacted in the exact way they were supposed to and made yet another brilliant comeback to undo the injustice done to them. The whole team reacted positively, credit to the manager to keep up the spirits and keep the players calm. Match Review "FRED SCORES THE EQUALISER FOR MANCHESTER UNITED!" Yes this actually happened Cavani had a goal controversially disallowed in the 33rd minute after VAR spotted a flailing arm from McTominay on Son in the build-up. Apparently, Scott McTominay was trying to run forward but Son pulled his arm back, and while trying to get away from him the Scotsman fingers brushed Son, knocking him out for 3 minutes. I was scared if he had to be s...

Manchester United beat Granada 0-2 Manchester United move a step closer to Europa League Semi-Finals after a comfortable 2-0 first-leg win over Granada at Estadio Los Carmenes. The Red Devils displayed a much-improved game as compared to the one against Brighton. MATCH REVIEW The Men of the Moment United took control of the match early on in the game. They restricted Granada to the odd sight of goal, as they engaged De Gea into some Routine Saves. On-loan Chelsea forward Kenedy blazed a volley from a small frame. Former Spurs striker Roberto Soldado lashed a shot into the side netting. United switched off from a freekick and nearly paid the price 5 minutes before the break, but the woodwork came to their rescue as on-loan Manchester City midfielder Yangel Herrera's cross-shot cannoned off the post. Besides these, the Spanish side did not threaten United . Fernandes was yet again on target from the spot Rashford notched his 8th European Goal of the season in the 31st minute. Rashfo...

Manchester United beat West Ham 1-0 Manchester United won their home game against West Ham to go 2nd in the Premier League table on Sunday night. A Craig Dawson own goal in the 53' from a Bruno Fernandes corner kick sealed the win for The Red Devils against The Hammers. Having avoided conceding a goal, we attained a 4th clean sheet in a row in the league, the first time they have achieved that under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. West Ham never really threatened Dean Henderson until the introduction of Said Benharama. Though they did try to break the fort, MUFC defence stood tall and strong. Antonio and Bowen were West Ham's biggest threats but were kept quiet by our backline [via Sky Sports] Both sides started the game energetically with West Ham winning a corner in the first few minutes. West Ham seemed happy with United having most of the possession. David Moyes' game plan was to sit back and hit United at the break with the pace of Antonio and Bowen. United had 61% possession ...

Dan James' upturn in form is certainly a welcome return [Image Courtesy of Manchester United] Manchester United finally put their Premier League woes behind them after a comfortable 3 - 1 win against Newcastle as we saw Marcus Rashford, Daniel James, and Bruno Fernandes finding the target.  MATCH OVERVIEW Bruno Fernandes chipped in with 2 more goal involvements The match at Old Trafford was a bit dull to start with as both teams were relying more on individual quality than tactical brilliance to break the deadlock. Marcus Rashford continued his breathtaking form as he drove from the left flank into the box and rifled a shot into Darlow's near post. Just before halftime, a poor header from Harry Maguire landed at the feet of Allan Saint-Maximan who converted to bring the Magpies level. As if a switch had been turned on at halftime, the Red Devils came in with purpose and tried to create chances to get into the box. The breakthrough finally happened when Dan James was played ...

Manchester United kicked off their Europa League campaign in some style A perfect beginning to The Europa League for Manchester United as they battered Real Sociedad 4-0 , in what was a one-sided clash . After a disappointing group-stage exit from the Champions League back in December, this was the first European encounter for Ole's men. Real Sociedad failed to influence the game in a significant manner as Manchester United ran the show . The game itself must've ingrained massive confidence for the squad ahead in the competition. MATCH OVERVIEW Rashford put himself in great positions but his finishing let him down The match was played at a neutral venue, the Allianz Stadium in Turin, as the travel restrictions in Spain abated the tie to be played at the Reale Arena. Manchester United made 5 changes to the side that drew against West Brom . The referee blew the whistle and the match kicked off with The Red Devils attacking from the right. In the maiden minute of the game, Eric ...

Manchester United have picked up just 1 pt from 2 matches against the leagues bottommost clubs TALKING POINTS It was a terrible start to that game from the Red Devils as they gave away a very early goal to West Brom within 3 minutes. Diagne wrestled with Lindelof and stuck the header home from close range following a world-class ball delivered by Connor Gallagher. West Brom did not let up as they continued to be physically dominant against a Man United side who was taken by surprise. But then again many would not have been surprised as Manchester United are predictably unpredictable. Moments before half time, Luke Shaw lobbed a ball which was met exquisitely by Fernandes who yet again tried to dig the Red Devils out of a hole. Manchester United's start to the second half was in stark contrast to what they showed in the first half. The movement was a lot quicker and balls were being fizzed into the box. All the sign seemed to show that Man United would find a way but West Brom wer...

  Manchester United beat West Ham in FA Cup 5th Round Manchester United were left in agony after their PL clash against Everton ended on level terms as Calvert-Lewin netted a 95th-minute equaliser. The Red Devils missed an opportunity to go level on points with Manchester City, even if that was for only 21 hours. We allowed City to further the gap between us and look up the table to see them 5 pts clear at the top with a game in hand. Let's accept it. City are running riot at the moment. A game in the FA Cup allows managers to rotate their team and fringe players to come into the side. Not when you're Manchester United. We have a knack of drawing relatively stronger opposition from the available pool. This time around it was a revitalised West Ham side . Although, Solskjaer did rest Bruno and Shaw and brought in Van de Beek and Telles. I've to be really frank. This was possibly the dullest 90 minutes of football I've seen in a while. Manchester United dominated possess...

Although, as soon as Cavani scored the opening goal for Manchester United they started imposing their presence on the game. The Red Devils ended a dominant first half with a sumptuous Bruno Fernandes beauty. We looked to set to take all 3 pts going into the second half. However, it was the Merseyside team that started the second half strong. Everton got back on level terms within 7 minutes of the start of the second half. Manchester United were still struggling to find their feet as they were recovering from the shock of the 2 quickfire goals. We finally got the lead courtesy to a Scott McTominay header from a Luke Shaw free-kick. Our team had just one job, to de...

Match Review Cavani's relieved to score after missing a host of chances against Arsenal The Red Devil's never relented after the Saints' Alexandre Jankewitz was sent off for a studs-up challenge on Scott Mctominay just 82 seconds into the match. Wan-Bissaka opened the scoring with his first goal at Old Trafford. United doubled their lead soon after Rashford redirected a Mason Greenwood pass past Saint's keeper.

Fernandes and Martial break their goal draughts Substitute Anthony Martial scored twice in...

On the other hand, Manchester United were in spectacular form weeks before establishing themselves as heavyweights in the title race before a shocking defeat against relegation-threatened Sheffield United. This match left so many questions for both the sides. Match Overview  Granit Xhaka and Marcus Rashford battling for the ball The match kicked off in a classy manner with Manchester United wearing the Black away kit and Arsenal in their classic home jersey.
