Finally a victory for the Manchester United! After two consecutive defeats in the Premier League, Ten Haag’s team “blew up” against the weak Barnsley (3rd class), prevailing with the a commanding 7-0 at “Old Trafford” for the third round of the English League Cup!
Playing with a mix of starters and substitutes, the Red Devils swept the match from the very first half thanks to goals from Rashford (16′), Anthony (35′ pen.) and Garnazzo (45+2′). In the replay, not only did they not concede, but they found two more goals before the hour mark, again with Rashford and Garnazzo, for the Eriksen and with two personal goals in 81′ and 85′, to shape the final score.
In the remaining games of the evening, Bradford and Kristal palas they did their “duty” against Leyton Orient (3-1) and QPR (2-1), while the Premier League derby between Everton and Southampton lost to the “Saints”, who passed Liverpool 6-5 in the pen. (1-1 ch.)
The qualification to the 4th round of the institution was secured with great effort and… luck Fulhamwhich bent her Preston in the process of penalty after 34 executions! In the 90th minute – there is no overtime in the institution – the two teams were tied at 1-1. Both were on target from 11 steps to the 8th run, with Fulham missing first and then the Championship side throwing away the opportunity. In the end, it took a 31st penalty to see Preston through, as Castañe missed for the ‘Cottagers’ earlier.
