AFC Bournemouth vs Manchester United: Report | Premier League

Manchester United squared off Bournemouth in Match day 11 of Premier League.

The Red Devils travelled South Coast without Lukaku and looked sluggish from the start unable to cook together.

Bournemouth who are in rich vein of form caught Manchester napping early in the game and created 4 chances in first 10 minutes.

The hosts were denied by United’s final line of defence, De Gea not once or twice but thrice. But, Callum Wilson was not to be kept quiet for long and tapped in a cross from Stanislas in 12th minute.

Again in the Premier league were United down in first ten minute but to their delight was expectation of having something parallel to their last three games resilient comeback performance.

The visiting fans were not to be left distressed for long when Martial’s tap in brought United from behind and gain parity. Alexis Sanchez had his name in the assists. Who else it could be than in for Martial with his 5th goal in last 4 Premier League games.

The first half ended a one goal square. When the teams came back in second half, United looked more dominant and convicted than they enervated in first half.

The best chance of night went begging when Shaw missed a face-off goal and hit the body of Begovic, very much to the liking of home fans.

Another chance slipped off United’s scoreline when Rashford went for power instead of a tap in which nearly went into the goal but was denied off by Brooks in the line.

When it seemed that teams were to share a point each, Paul Pogba and Rashford had other plans queued. In the 2nd minute of injury time came a cross of Pogba which was met by Rashford with utmost intelligence to win the game for visitors.
