Angel Gomes’ phenomenal form has had fans talking. While United’s exceptional youth academy has always boasted of great talents, not all of them make the cut into the senior team. A variety of factors keep the starlets from making a full mark on regular football at The Theatre of Dreams and in the modern game,…
Man Utd were handed a 1-0 loss to Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday, their third Premier League defeat already this campaign. A Paul Pogba error inside the box led to the Red Devils conceding a penalty and Arsenal took home the win with great ease via Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang’s spot-kick. Ole Gunnar Solskjær certainly won’t…
Manchester United succumbed to Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal yet again as the Gunners registered their first away win against a top-six side in the Premier League since the 2014/15 season. Both sides seemed pretty evenly matched throughout the game except the Londoners seemed dominant in midfield. Thomas Partey covered every blade of grass as he controlled…
AC Milan lead the Serie A table as Zlatan Ibrahimovic breaks free of the shackles of age and gives his side a win against Udinese.

It’s an inspiring moment for football enthusiasts to watch a team making an explosive impact chiefly with young players. And that’s the case with AC Milan this season, a club which is currently showcasing great potential and results. 3-0 was the scoreline last night, as the Italian side cruised through their Europa League clash against…

Scoring 5 goals whilst conceding none, Manchester United have sealed a dominating win last night in the Champions League fixture against RB Leipzig. Accordingly, the English side have registered their second victory in the group stages, the last one being even more significant, against Paris-Saint Germain.

A game touted to be difficult ended up a goalfest as Old Trafford witnessed its side beat RB Leipzig 5-0 on Wednesday.

However, upon Marcus Rashford’s introduction in the final…
Marcus Rashford stole all the headlines and talking points as he netted a beautiful hat-trick to seal Manchester United’s Champions League tie against RB Leipzig 5-0 on Wednesday. Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial were the other two names on the scoresheet but until Rashford’s introduction in the final portion of the game, the scoreline had…
Man Utd’s clash against Chelsea appeared to be an uneventful affair when one looks solely at the 0-0 scoreline. However, as such results often go in the Premier League, the actual game was one riddled with defensive discipline and several close chances. Of course, a massive VAR oversight when it came to a Harry Maguire…
PSG is arguably Manchester United’s most popular destination to travel to as of late. The Parc des Princes held a lot of surprises last time around and on Tuesday too, it was United’s dominance that broke through best. Perhaps what made the 2-1 affair all the more entertaining was just how well the Red Devils…
Manchester United secured a convincing 2-1 win over PSG at the Parc des Princes. The Red Devils did not falter as fans feared in the build-up to the game.

The Champions League group stage game was an outstanding affair with both teams putting in the entertainment factor at their best. However, it was Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s side that…
Tottenham Hotspur threw away a virtually indomitable lead on Sunday as their encounter against West Ham United ended 3-3.

Further, within the 15th minute their victory seemed like an assured affair as a Harry Kane brace took…
Manchester United pulled off an emphatic comeback against Newcastle United following a flurry of late goals. The visitors were trailing 1-0 by virtue of an early Luke Shaw own goal. Harry Maguire followed up with an equaliser 20 minutes later. However, despite being awarded a penalty, the Red Devils failed to take the lead in…
Man Utd staged a self-created comeback against Newcastle United on Saturday. The Red Devils went down within minutes of kick-off due to Luke Shaw’s own-goal. A disallowed goal and a shockingly missed penalty furthered Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s woes. However, a couple of substitutions and a late flurry of activity later, the fixture stood transformed. Harry…
A game that seemed destined for further bleakness was redeemed by a late flurry of goals as Manchester United secured a 1-4 victory away to Newcastle United. Things started off on a rough patch for Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s side as Luke Shaw netted an unfortunate own-goal giving Newcastle the lead in less than two minutes.…
Harry Maguire’s past performances for England and Manchester United seem to be the only determinant behind the patience of Gareth Southgate and Ole Gunnar Solskjær as the defender continues a series of poor performance with the last one being a 1-0 defeat against Denmark. Whilst his guilty verdict and the resultant 21-month prison sentence could…
The international break is proving to be a fruitful spell for Manchester United fans. On the one hand, it is providing them with some respite from the utter shamble of a performance that the 1-6 loss to Tottenham Hotspur stood for.

The Old Trafford outfit came undone in the fixture despite leading the scoreboard in the opening minutes via a Bruno Fernandes penalty. The traveling side…
Eric Bailly made a strong statement with his performance against Brighton and Hove Albion on Wednesday. The Ivory Coast international has struggled to remain fit throughout his career at Manchester United. At only 26 year of age, he certainly carries a lot of brimming impact that keeps getting sidelined due to injuries. However, his performance…
Juan Mata defined excellence during his outing against Brighton and Hove Albion. Time and time again the Spaniard’s presence in Manchester United’s roster has been questioned. He clearly no longer challenges for the crucial starting spots that David Moyes purchased him for from Chelsea back in 2014. Yet, it is performances like the one he…
Marcus Rashford clearly has an eye for the spectacular. The English forward was on the scoresheet during Manchester United’s dramatic 3-2 win over Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

Manchester United did not face any issues soaring through their Carabao Cup tie against Luton Town, winning 3-0.

Man Utd suffered a loss in their Premier League opener, the first time they have done so in six seasons. Crystal Palace bossed Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s men quite well in their 3-1 win. The drama began early on itself as Andro Townsend opened the scoring in the 7th minute. This was doubled by more controversy…
Liverpool narrowly escape with 3 points against Leeds United on opening day as Virgil van Dijk made things difficult for his own side for once.

Manchester United are one of the prime clubs with a demonstrated history in terms of reaping great academy talent, and they seem to have secured another one, as Tahith Chong, who’s now out on loan, has displayed sparks of potential. Chong joined the Red Devils back in 2016, when he was 16 years old. The…
Club friendlies offer a great platform to test out new players, new settings, and new plays before the start of a fresh season, which enables efficient decisions once the competition kicks off.

The next season of the Premier League is right around the corner and table dynamics will certainly be fascinating.

As such, one can no longer be certain about how the top of the table will…
Bruno Fernandes was outstanding during his outing with Portugal, getting the better of Mateo Kovačić.

PSG’s defeat in the Champions League final meant that Bayern Munich’s dream treble appeared an easy affair.

Bayern Munich have secured the 2019/20 Champions League title, defeating PSG 1-0 at Lisbon on Sunday.

Sevilla FC were crowned winners of the Europa League yet again with an excellent 3-2 win over Inter Milan in the final at Cologne.

Manchester United’s fixtures for the 2020/21 Premier League season have been announced. The COVID-19 pandemic has thrown the entire world in disarray and the usual football calendar is no exception.

Cologne ended Manchester United’s European hopes, further strengthening the all too familiar path for Sevilla FC as the side won the semi-final 2-1.

Bayern Munich thrashed Barcelona 8-2 in their Champions League quarter-final in Lisbon.

However, after that the Bundesliga champions completely took the game away from the La Liga outfit. It was certainly salt on the wounds of the…
Anthony Martial had an exceptional game when Manchester United secured a 1-0 win over Copenhagen on Monday.

Fans were exceptionally impressed…
Man Utd had a hard and long night in Cologne in order to defeat Copenhagen in the quarter-final of the Europa League on Monday.

Premier League clubs have decided to scrap the five-substitutions rule in the latest meeting.

This was…
Manchester United have booked a spot against FC Copenhagen in Germany for the quarter-finals of the Europa League on Monday.
