History is made of tales that cannot be thought of and Sheffield United has just gone and won in the backyard of the Red Devils.
Sheffield United who are still at the bottom of the Premier league faced a tough opponent in Manchester United who were on a spree and could be title contenders but this result may have put a small dent in those ambitions.
Sheffield United defended well and an immature pairing of Tuanzebe and Maguire may have been the downfall of Manchester United in this match not because of anything else but simply because of the inexperience that he has.
