After the big loss – United won easily

Leksand extended the winning streak beat AIK

It’s about United.

In the space of three days at the end of February, the team knocked Barcelona out of the play-off round of the Europa League and then claimed their first title in six years when they defeated Newcastle in the League Cup final.

Then came the worst defeat in history, 0-7, against rival Liverpool, last Sunday.

But United recovered from the humiliation at Anfield and took a big step towards the quarter-finals.

Marcus Rashford scored 1-0 in the sixth minute, but Ayoze Péres equalized after just over half an hour with a pressed shot at the far post.

Then Antony stepped forward and elegantly angled in 2-1 into the far post in the 52nd minute and just six minutes later Bruno Fernandes headed in 3-1.

Team captain Fernandes was criticized for, among other things, showing poor body language in the overrun in Liverpool.

Wout Weghorst determined 4–1.

Victor Nilsson Lindelöf and Anthony Elanga sat on the bench in the snow at Old Trafford the whole match.

Premier League leaders Arsenal held to a 2-2 draw away to Sporting Lisbon thanks to a 62nd-minute own goal from home side Hidemasa Morita.
