Led 0-2 by Atalanta Bergamo last night at Old Trafford, Manchester United finally won 3-2 thanks to a burning Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester United were entering the most decisive part of the season in the worst possible way. Indeed, the space of a few days, Ronaldo and his family face Leicester City, Atalanta, Liverpool, Tottenham and end in Manchester City on November 6. With the loss to Leicester, Ole Gunnar Solskjear’s place was once again under threat. We had to react at all costs to Bergamo in the Champions League. Especially that a defeat of the Reds Devils would have largely compromised their chance of qualification.
“We are Man. United and we never give up! “
Very badly started in this meeting, Manchester United avoided disaster with a lot of character. Marcus Rashford and Harry Maguire got United back on track before Ronaldo blew up Old Trafford with a splendid header in the 81st minute.
After the meeting, the Portuguese posted a message of joy on his networks : ” Yes! The theater of dreams is on fire! We are Man. United and we never give up! It’s Old Trafford! ” This victory is perhaps the trigger for the season of the Reds Devils, whether in the Champions League or in the league. Response Sunday against Liverpool.
