Manchester United reversed Aston Villa 3:2 and won immediately following changing to a new club
Is this meeting gift sincere enough?
In the early morning of the 27th, Beijing time, in a focus showdown in the 19th round of the Premier League, Manchester United defeated Aston Villa 3:2, ending the embarrassment of four previous games without a win. This is a crucial victory for the “Red Devils” in the winter schedule, and it also gives a big gift to the new club Ratcliffe.
The game is like a roller coaster
From a 0:2 to a 3:2 comeback, the “Red Devils” used all the energy they had accumulated in recent years.
It’s been a roller coaster ride. Due to his poor record, Manchester United coach ten Hag has been in the spotlight recently. If he doesn’t win, he might be fired before the New Year. Aston Villa is in high spirits, having defeated Manchester City and Arsenal consecutively in December, and is very experienced in dealing with “TOP6” teams.
After the game started, Aston Villa turned away and took the “Red Devils” seriously, taking a 2-goal lead in the 26th minute. Not surprisingly, this will be another hearty victory for Aston Villa.
However, following the start of the second half, Manchester United organized an effective attack and frequently threatened Aston Villa’s goal. Garnacho, who has recently gained the starting position and is getting better and better, became the hero of the “Red Devils” reversal. He scored two goals in 12 minutes to equalize the score.
For Manchester United, forcing a draw is not bad. Just when everyone was done with it, Hoylen, who had just transferred here this season, killed the game in the 82nd minute. United completed a seemingly impossible comeback and Hoylen scored his first Premier League goal following waiting almost five months.
A reversal disrupts the situation
This sudden reversal also disrupted the current situation in the Premier League. On the same day, Liverpool defeated Burnley 2:0 and once once more led the Premier League standings.
But Aston Villa originally had the same points as Liverpool before this round. After Manchester United lost the three points they were determined to win at Old Trafford at home, the gap between them and Liverpool has widened, and if Arsenal also wins this round , then the gap with Aston Villa will widen.
As the most popular team in recent times, Aston Villa is one of the strong contenders for the Premier League championship this season.
But following consecutive wins once morest Manchester City and Arsenal, their progress has slowed down. They were tied by Sheffield United in the last round and reversed by Manchester United in this round. The expected six points instantly turned into one point, and signs of falling behind began to appear.
The biggest test for Premier League teams comes from the brutal New Year schedule. When other leagues are taking a winter break, Premier League teams have to play an extremely difficult three games a week. Not only is it difficult to maintain the team’s condition, but it is also easy for players to be in the most difficult situations. Injuries occur during the cold season.
Therefore, many dark horses in the Premier League often fall behind in the New Year’s schedule and miss out on the championship for the entire season. However, the powerful teams with sufficient personnel reserves can spend the New Year’s schedule with better results and lay the foundation for winning the championship.
New owners get gifts
Manchester United’s victory is undoubtedly a New Year’s gift to new club Ratcliffe. He had just purchased a quarter of Manchester United’s shares for 1.3 billion pounds two days ago and obtained full management rights of the club. All future affairs of Manchester United will be decided by Ratcliffe.
Before the acquisition of Manchester United, many people in the industry felt that no one needed to wade into troubled waters, but the 71-year-old Ratcliffe has been a loyal supporter of the “Red Devils” since he was a child and has a special affection for this century-old giant. In addition, he himself also has experience in investing in sports, so when Manchester United is ready to sell off its shares, Ratcliffe of course wants to take his favorite team into his hands.
Of course, a reversal victory cannot cover up Manchester United’s decline. If they want to return to their former glory, the new club still has a lot to do.
At present, there are several people in the Manchester United team who are not in Ten Hag’s plan. Casemiro voluntarily left Old Trafford and has been included in the transfer list. Sancho has conflicts with Ten Hag and is also for sale. As a player, Anthony’s performance is not worthy of his worth and he has lost his position. If these players are successfully transferred during the winter transfer window, Manchester United will also need to introduce new players, which requires Ratcliffe to pay for it with a check.
This is just the first step for Manchester United to return to glory. There is still a long road ahead. Are Ten Hag and Ratcliffe ready?
