Faced with a weak Newcastle team, Manchester United ended up winning 4-1 on Saturday night in the Premier League.
Humiliated by Tottenham before the international window (1-6), Manchester United had to revive in Premier League, against Newcastle, on Saturday night, just 3 days before his shock against the PSG in the Champions League, next Tuesday at the Parc des Princes. Mission accomplished. The formation of Ole Gunnar Solskajer won its second victory in 4 league matches against the Magpies (1-4), to climb a little in the standings (14th currently).
Pogba on the bench
MU was somewhat disturbed by the many absences. Anthony Martial was suspended, Edinson Cavani not yet operational and Mason Greenwood forfeited, while Paul Pogba and Donny van de Beek, them, started on the bench. They could all be available against the Parisians. Thus, Scott McTominay, Fred, Juan Mata and Daniel James were launched in the eleven and the Mancunians largely dominated the debates. It must be said that the Red Devils started the game badly, with an entry csc from Luke Shaw, on a cross from former Amiens Emil Krafth (2nd).
Rashford in all the right moves
After a nice goal denied to Bruno Fernandes (20th), it is a recovery of the head of Harry Maguire who reset the counters to zero (23rd). And if the Portuguese playmaker missed his chance on a generous penalty (58th), he then gave the advantage to his team with an unstoppable shot in the top corner (86th). Deserved for a MU who finished with 28 strikes, including 14 on target! Decisive passer for Fernandes but also for Aaron Wan-Bissaka (90th), Marcus Rashford concluded this offensive festival in added time (96th). Confidence is regained before C1.
