Sheffield United: Bogle (35’), Brereton (50’)

In this match, MU continued to lack a series of central defenders, so midfielder Casemiro continued to be “trusted” for the second consecutive match alongside Harry Maguire in the center of defense.

However, MU is still rated much higher than the bottom team Sheffield United. However, after the first few minutes of pressure, the Red Devils suddenly conceded a goal in the 35th minute.

Goalkeeper Onana made a mistake with a pass that was too light, allowing Jayden Bogle to steal the ball before easily defeating the MU guard in the face-off phase. 1-0 for Sheffield United at Old Trafford.

Having lost quite carelessly, MU tried to attack to equalize. 7 minutes after the goal, midfielder Maguire scored a dangerous header, equalizing the score 1-1. After the break, the Red Devils’ defense system was penetrated again with Brereton’s goal in the 50th minute, thereby increasing the score to 2-1 for Sheffield United.

But since then, host Man United played extremely well and scored consecutive goals against the away team. In an impressive day of competition, Maguire continued to be MU’s hero when he won the penalty.

Thanks to that, Bruno Fernandes equalized 2-2 in the 61st minute. In the 81st minute, Fernandes made a great long shot, giving MU the lead for the first time in this match. 3-2 for the Red Devils.

Just 4 minutes later, Fernandes assisted Hojlund to seal the 4-2 victory. Winning with a final score of 4-2, MU with 53 points officially regained 6th place from Newcastle United, after a series of make-up matches in round 29 of the Premier League.
