In the last game of Saturday’s Premiership program, Manchester United managed to beat Burnley on the road and to continue with solid performances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Solskajer’s boys posted their second win in a row, indicating that they might heal after a series of shaky performances. The Red Devils defeated Burnley with 0-2 at Turf Moore, playing a very good game against an opponent who is a tough nut to crack for any team in the league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
United had the first big chance in the 19th minute when Rashford’s shot scratched the post. The guests from Manchester were much better in the opening half, and they didn’t allow the hosts to be dangerous as they often know when playing in front of their own fans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anthony Martial had his first attempt in the 34th minute, but his shot was blocked by one of Clarets’ defenders. However, the French international broke the lock of the hosts one minute before the halftime, after Charlie Taylor’s massive mistake. Perreira found Martial almost immediately, and the pacey forward scored for 0-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hosts headed for the locker room without a single big chance in front of United’s net. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the second half, we haven’t seen that much action on the field, but it was obvious that United controlled the pace and the game flow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, once hosts opened and went all or nothing, the Red Devils made a superb counter-attack which resulted in Martial’s goal in the fifth minute of the injury time. It meant that United kept its invincibility against Burnley, extending it to nine matches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
