In the English Premier League, Everton and Leicester are among the leaders, and both Manchester and Tottenham clubs are below the equator of the standings, which is just what you won’t see in this wild 2020 year. Yet these were the realities. in the highest football championship in England at the time of the fourth round. This could be interesting in the context of the Old Trafford matchup between Manchester United and London’s Tottenham, were it not for the fact that José Mourinho arrived at the Red Devils’ home stadium.
The “Spurs” limped on both legs in the opening three games, but still managed to score four points, thanks to a successful meeting with Southampton (5: 2) and a home draw with Newcastle (1: 1). United had only two fights this season, but one of them ended in a painful loss at home to Crystal Palace (1: 3). Of course, we are only talking about the start of the season, but the Mourinho and Solskjaer teams will have to compete in European competitions, which will seriously complicate the tasks at home after the second half of the national team matches.
Fans who didn’t have time to connect at the start of this fight’s broadcast prior to referee Antonio Taylor’s whistle are frankly sorry. It took Anthony Martial a little over twenty seconds to get a penalty passing Davinson Sánchez. In general, we can assume that the game started with a well-aimed shot from Bruno Fernandes’ penalty spot to the right corner.
However, not a couple of minutes had passed when the hosts’ keeper gave Maguire and Shaw the benefit of the ridiculous gallop match against Lamela. Tanguy Ndombele came close, towards which there was a successful rebound for the guests. With another three minutes of playing time, United will make a second goal error in the fight, having slept on a quick punt in Kane’s midfield. The dream reached the left flank of someone else’s penalty area, after which the Korean threw the ball over De Gea.
The opening phase of the fight gave the “red devils” a chance to start the game from scratch, but instead, Solskjaer’s team sank deep into defense, after which Martial’s stupidest mistake predetermined the result of confrontation. The frank and shameless provocation of Eric Lamela, who was guarded by the Manchester forward as he prepared for a corner from the left wing, ended with a pass from Martial in the face of the rival and a savage simulation of the latter. Taylor saw the episode inside and out, but a direct red card went to the side of Solskjaer’s team, while the Argentine received only a yellow.
What did this event change for United? Essentially nothing. Marcial in the 4-2-3-1 scheme acts as a kind of “head” of the body, of which the team was deprived at one point. As it turned out, the “devil” is not a chicken (which is quite logical), and even a short period of time cannot exist without an important part of the body. Bailly immediately led the attack on his own goal with a failed transfer from the penalty area to the support zone, after which Sleep rolled from the left flank of the owners’ possessions into the empty net for Kane. And so that no doubts had arisen for sure, the Korean at the end of time sent the ball between De Gea’s legs, closing the center of Orye from the right wing to the near corner of the goalkeeper. Bailly again made a mistake in that situation.
In the second half, Solskjaer had neither the opportunity nor the urgent need to save. United just had to try to save face, because the outcome of the match was a foregone conclusion. Still, the Manchester team could not cope, within 6 minutes of returning to the field, conceding the fifth goal. Pogba did not express a desire to intercept Hoybjerg’s pass to the right flank of the penalty area for Aurier, after which the right-back hit from the bottom right in the far corner.
Increase the pressure from Mourinho’s team even more, and the opponent’s defense would simply scatter in different directions, but here Tottenham acted as a courteous guest. The Spurs attacked at a leisurely pace, but even that turned out to be too fast for Pogba, who dropped Davis in one of the attacks on the right flank of his team’s penalty area. The Solskjaer Sentinels scored their sixth own goal from Kane with a penalty kick in the upper left corner. At this point, the pogrom could finally be considered complete.
Manchester United will return to business in the Premier League after the national teams’ away matches against Newcastle United, while Tottenham will await a variation of the London derby in the form of a home game with West Ham.
