Despite relegation from the Champions League last month and despite relegation in the League Cup semi-finals by Manchester City last week,
Manchester United have
recently been going through one of their best seasons in recent years.
Tonight (Tuesday) the Red Devils went to a rematch against Burnley away, achieved a fifth victory in the last six rounds of the Premier League and climbed to 1st place in the table with a 3 point advantage over arch-rival Liverpool, which they will meet this coming Sunday for the season.
United's winning goal came in the 71st minute.
Marcus Rashford raised from the right towards Paul Pogba, who kicked from the air and his ball hit Matthew Lawton, changed direction and went inside.
0: 1 at the end.
Sheffield United have
finally achieved their first win of the season, a costly 0-1 win over Newcastle.
The team that was last year the biggest surprise in the kingdom, became within a few months the weakest team in the league.
Today she hosted Newcastle and took advantage of the weakness of the Magpies and the red card of Ryan Fraser in the 45th minute.
Whoever is in charge of the winning goal for her is Billy Sharp who scored with a penalty in the 73rd minute.
Everton
also achieved an important victory that left them at the top of the table.
The Blues defeated Wolves 1: 2 away from goals from Alex Iwobi (6) and Michael Keane (77).
Ruben Neves (14) only temporarily compared.
