Crystal Palace-Manchester United 0-0
The last time his Manchester United lost a league away game was against Liverpool in January last year. Since then, they had played 20 away games without losing.
The match against Crystal Palace was on the 21st.
– It’s an impressive achievement. At the same time, it has been a disappointing night for Manchester United, TV 2’s Øyvind Alsaker said from the commentary box.
Disappointed sun
Solskjær is not happy, neither with the games nor with the results.
– It’s disappointing. We are a little “off”. When you’re “off”, and if you don’t play your best, you don’t win matches, Kristiansunderen tells Sky Sports.
He’s particularly unhappy that his players mess up the ball over and over again. In addition, Manchester United only had one shot on goal. Now he has played 0-0 three times in a row in all tournaments.
When asked by TV 2 if he is concerned about development, he replies:
– You are not happy when you do not create enough opportunities to win. It’s been a goalless week and sometimes three games seem like a lot without scoring. We have not let in either, but sometimes a week like this comes for a season. It’s a bit of a concern, of course, but I know guys give everything they have. We must return to the quality that we know we can have.
Killed by the experts
TV 2’s soccer experts agree: After the game, Erik Thorstvedt showed a series of clips that he called “a cabinet of terror,” and addressed the many simple mistakes.
– I almost think it hurts to sit here and kill them. It is so obvious that this is absolutely terrible. There’s only one hope, and that’s just this match, the former Premier League goalkeeper said.
– There are so many bad and weird things, he concluded.
Thorstvedt had the support of Erik Huseklepp.
– There are an incredible amount of strange things. Nor do they face a team that puts a lot of pressure on them. They were unrecognizable, he said.
– Is not sufficient
The Red Devils carelessly parted into the misty sea of Selhurst Park. Then they had a good period at the beginning of the first half, but the endings were either dodged by a good Vicente Guaíta or a shot outside.
In any case, Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s men were a good distance from the top tier before the break.
– Not good enough, was Thorstvedt’s verdict during the break.
Losing ground to the city
The second half continued on the same track. The Red Devils struggled to create opportunities against a compact Palace team. Just before full time, the home team seized a great opportunity, but goalkeeper Dean Henderson stopped Patrick van Aanholt’s attempt with a fine parade.
– It is a rescue that can mean a lot to your career. It is extremely important for him to save points for his own club, Thorstvedt said.
Manchester United have drawn five times in the last seven league games. During the period, they have lost a lot of ground to the magnificent Manchester City. The distance is 14 points.
On Sunday, the city’s rivals meet. You can see the giant settlement on TV 2 Sport Premium and Sumo at 17.30.
