Since Ronaldo’s return to Old Trafford, Manchester, with the wind in his sails, have impressed with their form in the Premier League. West Ham United players also have no reason to complain, as they had not lost a single defeat prior to their meeting with the Red Devils. The match was going to be really interesting, and the Polish fans were even more heated by the fact of possible clashes between Łukasz Fabiański and Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese played many times against Polish goalkeepers, but he was not always able to send the ball to the net. What is the balance of “CR7” clashes with Polish goalkeepers? You can read HERE.

The visitors from the very beginning have gained an advantage on the pitch. The team of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer came to many dangerous situations, but the Pole standing between the posts saved his team from loss several times. I must admit that the attitude of “Fabian” was very impressive.

The hosts also had their opportunities and finally surprised in the 30th minute when Said Benrahma hit from outside the penalty area, the ball bounced off Varane’s back, completely confused the goalkeeper and fell into the net.

Five minutes later, the reliable Cristiano Ronaldo led to a draw. Initially, Łukasz Fabiański defended his shot, but with the Portuguese rebound, the goalkeeper had no chance.

In the 42nd minute, “CR7” ran into the penalty area at full speed, he hit hard diagonally, but Fabiański caught the ball in installments. The next duel of both players took place right after the change of sides. The Portuguese received a great pass for about seven meters, but the Pole ran in front of the goal at the right moment and stopped the opponent.

The pace of the game did not slow down. The action shifted dynamically from one side of the pitch to the other. In the 77th minute it seemed that there would be a penalty kick, as the rushing Ronaldo broke into the opponent’s sixteen and fell after contact with the defender. Ultimately, the arbitrator concluded that it was not an offense.

When it seemed that the match would end in a draw, the visitors made a decisive action. Jesse Lingard ran into the penalty area and defeated Fabiański with a beautiful shot right in the corner of the goal! The Pole had no chance this time.

However, this was not the end of surprises. Luke Shaw handed the ball into his own penalty area after Jarmolenka’s cross. Mark Noble entered the field in order to perform the eleven, who … spoiled his chance and ultimately did not lead to an equalization.

In the parallel match played, Brighton took on Leicester. There was also no shortage of emotions there. Ultimately, the hosts won 2: 1, but it is worth noting that Lisy scored a total of three goals, two of which after the VAR analysis were not recognized. Jakub Moder appeared on the pitch in the 79th minute.
