Manchester United scored three goals in the first 15 minutes of the second half, showcasing an impressive performance by their star players and ultimately winning the match 3-1.
Both teams started the game energetically right after the referee blew the opening whistle. The home team, Manchester United, appeared to be more dominant and immediately created dangerous opportunities. Garnacho played exceptionally well on the wing and was the main threat for the Red Devils in the attacking phase of the first half.
However, while they were aggressively pushing forward without finding the net, Manchester United unexpectedly received a setback from the away team. In the 23rd minute, due to a mistake by Diogo Dalot in a careless pass in the midfield area, Lens took advantage of the opportunity. With Andre Onana coming off his line too high, Sotoca, Lens’ forward, quickly executed a skillful chip, giving the French representative the lead.
After conceding a surprising goal, Manchester United woke up and played more solidly. However, despite their increased concentration, they struggled to break through Lens’ defense, and the first half ended with an unfavorable scoreline for the home team at Old Trafford.
In the second half, the Red Devils displayed a completely different performance. The star players of Manchester United took turns shining, scoring three consecutive goals in just 15 minutes. Rashford, Antony, and Casemiro found the back of the net in the 48th, 53rd, and 59th minutes, respectively.
The game’s intensity tapered off in the following minutes, as it seemed both teams were content with the final score. The match concluded with a 3-1 victory for Manchester United, with the star players delivering an impressive performance.
