(Newcastle 1-4 Manchester United) When a new recession struck for Ole Gunnar Solskjær (47), the superstars struck with a wonderful attacking play that secured three valuable points for the pressed coach.
Three minutes from the end of regulation time, at 1-1, Manchester United made an attack taken from a dream of Sir Alex Ferguson: Donny van de Beek and Bruno Fernandes combined very well, Juan Mata knocked out the ball to Marcus Rashford , who cut the field and Fernandes played free, who punctured the ball perfectly on the crossbar.
The Portuguese could breathe a sigh of relief; early in the inning, he had missed a penalty for the first time in his Manchester United career.
– I was frustrated after missing the penalty, but we reacted well and scored fantastic goals, says Fernandes in an interview broadcast on TV 2.

It was evidently the night of unusual events: Right after the 2-1 goal, right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka hit the crossbar and scored his first goal for the club. Then Marcus Rashford made it 4-1 after a perfect pass through the back room from Fernandes.
The away win over Newcastle, where Solskjær’s men lost a similar match last year, gives Solskjær a long-awaited respite after his coaching position has been questioned in recent weeks. Manchester United now stand with six points from four Premier League games, while PSG await in the Champions League on Tuesday.
The Norwegian coach was clearly happy and relieved after the game, when with a big smile on his face he hugged his players in the rain at St. James’ Park.
– Our season started today, Solskjær warns, while captain Harry Maguire is surprised that there has been a bit of a storm at the club after two losses in the first three league games:
– It’s crazy, because we were in three games this season, and it seemed like a great crisis.
Nightmare start
– We want an answer. We want energy and a good attitude. We want players who fight as a team and play as a team with and without the ball, Solskjær said in a television interview before the start of the match.
Within two minutes, he was served the exact opposite: Manchester United fumbled atop the Newcastle midfield, Callum Wilson deflected a running Victor Lindelöf, Allan Saint-Maximin sped up the counterattack, and Jonjo Shelvey played. , which moved on. to Emil Krafth. His shot hit Luke Shaw in the leg, took David de Gea to bed and ended his run at the net.
– Jesus. For a disaster, replied Manchester Evening News reporter Samuel Luckhurst Twitter.
Sunshine seemed pensive on the sidelines. He had surprised the team’s selection by putting Paul Pogba and Donny van de Beek on the bench, while Mason Greenwood wasn’t even on the roster. Instead, Juan Mata and Daniel James started their respective matches. The move was not an immediate success, but it would pay off eventually.

Maguire fought back
After 19 minutes, Bruno Fernandes sent the corner kick to the right of the VAR, who headed hard over the goalkeeper. Four minutes later, there was nothing to complain about reruns when Captain Harry Maguire stepped forward and stabbed Juan Mata in a corner.
The scoring was important for Manchester United and Solskjær, but perhaps most important for Maguire himself: the midfielder has lived through a nightmare since the violence this summer in Greece, with weak performances on the field culminating in expulsion after half an hour. in England’s game against Denmark on Wednesday.
– This is how you respond to a difficult period in your career and your life. You don’t give up. You get up and fight. Happy on behalf of Maguire, writes television profile and former national team player Gary Lineker Twitter.
– We were led by a very, very inspiring captain, says Solskjær about Maguire.
Another who has been in the center of media attention lately is Bruno Fernandes. The Portuguese playmaker, who was replaced at halftime in the 1-6 humiliation against Tottenham before the national team break, had to fight back earlier this week against rumors that he is dissatisfied with Solskjær as coach.
Soon after, he had the opportunity to express his confidence in the boss on the field as well, when a VAR evaluation ended with Marcus Rashford receiving a penalty, but after scoring in his first 10 attempts, Fernandes missed the penalty for the first time. in the Manchester United career.
Karl Darlow was masterful in goal for Newcastle, as was the often insulted David de Gea on the opposite side; The Spaniard’s feverish rescue after Wilson’s shot from close range was the most impressive individual performance of the match.
Newcastle played lower and lower towards the end of the match, Solskjær pitched both Pogba and van de Beek, and with three minutes to go in regulation time he should loosen up completely: Fernandes scored the liberating goal 2-1, Wan- Bissaka made it 3-1 before Rashford capped the night with a goal on the final kick of the game.
