It reached its 11th consecutive double in the Premier League, but Leicester had a different opinion!
Despite leading twice with Rasford and Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United again showed defensive problems and the “foxes” took advantage of them, finding answers with Barnes and Vardy to … stop their rival (2-2).
Somehow, Leicester remained in second place and above United, but they have one game less.
The game was excellent at all times, with rhythm and phases on both sides. With the completion of 23 minutes, United found their way to the net, when Bruno with his … nose exposed Leicester’s defense and offered Rasford 1-0. However, eight minutes later the hosts found their way to the net and tied the score. Madison yielded to Barnes, who found the space between three United players and with … a shot from outside the area left no room for De Gea’s reaction for 1-1.
This marker was also at halftime, with the second half having few good moments and both teams playing more conservatively, wanting not to take great risks and take advantage of any opportunity that will be presented to them. Solskier threw Cavani in the 75th minute instead of the bad Marcial in the 75th minute and the Uruguayan four minutes later with a beautiful vertical put Fernandes in a position of four against four, who did not have a bad time beating Smichel 2-1.
The Manchester side embraced each other with their 11th straight away win, but was once again betrayed by their shaky defense. It was the 85th minute when Agiothe Pérez, who had entered the game four minutes earlier, made the return in the area, with Vardi being forgotten by the United defenders and with a shot in the play, which against Tuanzebe countered by sending the ball to net for the final 2-2 in the match that opened the curtain on Boxing Day in the Premier League!
