MU won a six-goal match against negative record holder Sheffield; Kerkez was exhibited

THE Manchester United although he reached the FA Cup final on penalties against Coventry at the weekend, he was without a win in the Premier League in four league games before the home match against Sheffield United. Erik ten Hag’s team has been struggling to stop the opponents’ attacks for months, allowing more than 20 (!) shots per game in the recent period, but now, against the army driver, they defended confidently, the guests hardly tried. Of course, this does not mean that MU didn’t score any goals…

In the first half, the domestic situations rained down, with a little exaggeration, Ten Hag could have gone up by four in the middle of the half, but Sheffield took the lead in the 35th minute. Come on Harry Maguire he equalized before the break, and in the 50th minute the advantage was again with the guests Ben Brereton Diaz through. A good ten minutes later Bruno Fernandes he conceded a penalty, and at that point you could already feel that the team leader could not resist the continued domestic attacks for long.

Before Fernandes scored a sumptuous bomb goal in the 81st minute, and not long after Rasmus Höjlund also arrives, and MU 4–2won on! Manchester is closer to starting the European Cup, Sheffield is closer to elimination – the latter only has a mathematical chance of staying in. But that’s not all, the visiting team also set a record: Sheffield have now conceded 92 goals, which is an absolute peak in the 38-match English league. With four rounds still to go, there is a good chance that the Yorkshiremen will reach over 100.

In addition, three champions were played on Wednesday night in the PL: Liverpool (which we wrote about in our live coverage) lost 2–0 From Evertonjust like Newcastle a From Crystal Palace (the two domestic goals were scored by the Frenchman Jean-Philippe Mateta, who now has 11 goals), while the Bournemouth They beat Wolverhampton 1-0 away from home, so they made it into the top ten, albeit with a match advantage. In the latter match, the wing defender of the Hungarian national team was sent off for mowing down the opponent. Circle Milos.
