CRAZY IN THE SECOND HALF: Erik ten Hag’s men actually started the match well, being able to excel after just six minutes of the game through Marcus Rashford’s goal. But they faltered because of Ayoze Perez’s goal in the 32nd minute to close the first half with a draw.

After the break, the Red Devils fought back and showed their best form to take the lead again thanks to Antony’s wonderful left-foot goal in the 52nd minute, which sparked two additional goals from Bruno Fernandes in the 58th minute and Wout Weghorst eight minutes from time.
