Manchester United played like Champions
Manchester United flew the English Premier League flag high in the Uefa Europa league last night.
I am not trying to impose my belief with this statement but I will say that English Premier League is the best league in the world based on performance, forget about the fact that they fumble a lot during UEFA competition. The smallest team in the EPL can pull stunts you won't believe against a top-class team anytime/any day.
Real Sociedad of the Spanish league was seriously punished by Manchester United in their first leg match in the knock-out stage of the competition. The English sides didn't stop at one but scored four goals to claim victory in the encounter.
Before the match, I believe United would win but I wasn't expecting the home team to go all 90 minutes without a goal. Real Sociedad currently sits fifth behind the big guys in the Spanish La Liga and I expected a tough performance from them unlike what they delivered during the match or should I say United played better?
I will let you decide that in the comment section.
United has stepped up their game recently in all competitions but they allowed Manchester City to claim the top spot in the league from them because of their little inconsistency.
Bruno Fernandez got the opening goal which happens to be the only goal scored in the first half of the match.
The Portuguese got his second in the 57th minute of the match, Marcus Rashford made it three while Daniel James scored the last goal to make it 4 goals.
Real Sociedad played a fantastic game but we're unlucky as United were able to contain them, they had the better share of the ball possession but couldn't get past the United defense.
United will be looking forward to getting more victories in all competitions and don't be surprised if they win the Uefa Europa Cup title because they possess the quality to take on any time in the world.
