4 d. ago Manchester United squeeze past Burnley with controversial Fernandes penalty

It is easy to see why Ruben Amorim has developed a love-hate relationship with his players after a 97th-minute Bruno Fernandes penalty controversially earned Manchester United’s first win of the season. The result should not have been in doubt but poor finishing and defending meant the hosts had to rely on the referee, Sam Barrott, to visit the pitchside monitor and overturn his own decision.Josh Cullen’s own goal gave United a deserved lead they should have built on but Lyle Foster and Jaidon Anthony were twice allowed to equalise either side of Bryan Mbeumo scoring United’s second in 11 chaotic second-half minutes. The match was heading for a draw until it was belatedly judged that Anthony had pulled down Amad Diallo and the United captain did the rest to send Old Trafford wild, while Burnley fumed. But once again, as at Grimsby in the Carabao Cup, Amorim did not watch the penalty. Continue reading...

Second qualifying round, semi-final: Man Utd 4-0 PSVCelin Bizet also scores while Julia Zigiotti Olme impressesManchester United began their quest to qualify for the Women’s Champions League by cruising to a 4-0 victory over PSV as Elisabeth Terland scored a hat-trick and the midfielder Julia Zigiotti Olme impressed on her debut.Terland’s classy treble, which was accompanied by a close-range finish from Celin Bizet, guaranteed Marc Skinner’s side some form of European football because their worst-case scenario would now be a place in the new second-tier Women’s Europa Cup. Their aim, however, is to join Arsenal and Chelsea in the Champions League and, on Wednesday’s evidence, they have a strong chance of doing so. Continue reading...

1 week ago Emile Smith Rowe’s instant impact for Fulham denies Manchester United

Ruben Amorim’s first response to Manchester United executives’ attempts last autumn to woo him was to ask to wait until the summer, granting time and space to know the club and players. This August’s season-opening matches were supposed to be the start, when he could be properly judged. Instead, he is already nine months into the job that enveloped five predecessors. Initial positive signs gave way to the muddle United closed last season within, casting a hungover shadow over attempts at a full reboot.After Rodrigo Muniz’s own-goal, claimed by Leny Yoro, Craven Cottage became that nine months in microcosm, Amorim’s team incapable of putting their opponent away. Bruno Fernandes’s uncharacteristic first-half penalty miss was redolent of a team full of psychological as well as tactical and personnel problems. Continue reading...
