Building on a success against Burnley, the Red Devils have gained some breathing room in the Premier League.
That same day, Manchester United took to the pitch at Burnley, for the sixth season of the Premier League. With a shot from the left, Amdouni beat Onana but saw his attempt hit the right post (18th). Following Reguilon’s corner, Evans placed a cross header at the near post which found its way into the Trafford goal. However, the referee can all view the video. Mr. Harrington is valid for this action, considering that an offside position by Hojlund had hampered the Clarets goalkeeper (26th).
In the final seconds of added time of the first half, Bruno Fernandes opened the scoring in favor of the Red Devils. On a long ball from Evans, the Portuguese volleyed a volley finding the small right net of the host team (45th + 3). Manchester United then returned to the locker room with the smallest possible advantage on the scoreboard.

In the second period, Erik ten Hag’s men had the opportunity to break. After a good recovery from Rashford, Hojlund was born from Al-Dakhil and narrowly missed the ball. This second act is relatively relative to opportunities. Onana nevertheless saved his team from an equalizer by effectively coming out in front of Roberts (75th).
