(West Ham 1-3 Manchester United) Manchester United proved that soccer is a two-round game. After a weak first half, Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s men fought back brutally and earned their fourth consecutive Premier League victory.
The Premier League has been rolling since September, but one thing is missing: spectators. The match was the first game of the season with fans in the stands, and the teams were greeted with soap bubbles and cheers at London’s Olympic Stadium.
And the home team has more reason to cheer in the first place. Because there was a docile visiting team on the field before the break. He took advantage of an energetic West Ham, who already at the minute created the first opportunity of the match.
The home team hit the post, missed an open goal and was left alone with the goalkeeper, but it was in a corner that he narrowed. Declan Rice appeared just in time near the post and led him past the goalie. There was an unmarked Tomás Soucek at the bottom of the net.
In just one game this season, “The Hammers” have gone scoreless off the field, and considering trends in the game, the ball was doomed to stay in the net in the end. Ole Gunnar Solskjær must have been close to a sprained neck from shaking his head in despair at Manchester United’s defensive play. Only Everton, Fulham, West Bromwich and Burnley have conceded more goals for Manchester United this season.

One thing he gave to Solskjær and company. I wait before the second half. By 2020, Manchester United had won 19 point after point after falling behind, the majority in the Premier League. No one has lost more points (16) after leading than West Ham.
In today’s football there are statistics for everything, but this time the numbers turned out to be correct. Because in three minutes in the middle of the second half, the visiting team turned the game around.
– We must stop letting opponents score first. If we keep zero more often, we will win more games. It is good that we show morale and will, but ideally we should not be allowed in, said Marcus Rashford after the game. He was among the players who returned the game against the guests.
First, Paul Pogba curved the ball into the corner from afar. A delicious long shot of the occasionally insulted Frenchman. Soon after, Mason Greenwood made sure the restructuring operation was done. Alex Telles’ post was primed for touch sensitive shots. Touch number two was used to throw the ball into the corner. Class of 19 years.
Ten minutes later, Marcus Rashford punctured the game. Fantastic 13 minutes for the Manchester club. A perfect stick from Juan Mata sent the striker only with the goalkeeper, and why not pass the ball over the goalkeeper? Playful easy for a player of his caliber.
Now Solskjær and company. just two points to the top of the table in the Premier League. Liverpool and Tottenham are in shared management.
