Manchester United secured a vital 4-2 victory against Sheffield United, but their performance was far from convincing. Despite taking an early lead through Jayden Bogle, the Blades found themselves trailing 4-2 thanks to a brace from Bruno Fernandes, a header from Harry Maguire, and a goal from Rasmus Hojlund.
Bruno Fernandes was the standout performer for the Red Devils, scoring twice and providing the assist for Maguire’s goal. The Portuguese midfielder has been in excellent form lately, scoring six goals in his last six league appearances.
Harry Maguire also impressed with a solid performance at the back, scoring United’s equalizer and winning the penalty that led to the second goal. The England international has been a key figure in United’s resurgence under Erik ten Hag.
However, not all of United’s players performed to the required level. Andre Onana made a costly mistake that led to Sheffield United’s first goal, while Diogo Dalot was at fault for both of the Blades’ goals.
Overall, it was a mixed performance from Manchester United. They showed resilience to come back from behind twice, but they will need to improve their consistency if they want to challenge for the Premier League title.
