Due to fielding the strongest squad, it was no surprise that the “Red Devils” of Manchester defeated the completely underdog host Wigan in the latest match of the 3rd round of the 2023/24 FA Cup.

Because the pressure to win was too great due to poor performance recently, coach Erik ten Hag was forced to field the strongest possible team even though the opponent was only Wigan, who was playing in the 3rd place. Hojlund returned after being absent. was present in the loss to Nottingham due to illness and McTominay also reappeared in the midfield in place of Eriksen.Although “spectacular” is, MU almost had to concede an early goal in the 3rd minute if goalkeeper Onana (after this match will return to play for the Cameroon national team at CAN 2023) did not play well against the shot of the shot. Aasgaard from a convenient cross on the right wing.However, gradually increasing MU also affirmed its strength and class. After the first opportunity for Rashford with a shot blocked by the opponent’s goalkeeper, McTominay unfortunately placed the post. Previously, MU coordinated the attack very smoothly with the participation of many players.And then, only in the 22nd minute, MU announced the game information. Rashford invited the ball to the second line and after a few moves, Dalot unleashed a classy curling shot with his right foot aimed at the far corner and caught goalkeeper Tickle, who was somewhat hidden from view by the forest of players in front of him.Fighting became more exciting after the score opened. The host team, Wigan, was strong in their search for an equalizer and had certain opportunities to threaten Onana’s goal.Even so, the game was still basically in MU’s hands, but as usual, Ramus Hojlund continued to be ungainly and lost in the “Red Devils” attack even though in the first half, he received quite a lot of the ball.In the 40th minute, the crossbar denied Garnacho a great shot with a dangerous long-range cannon shot, leaving the home team’s goalkeeper helpless.Entering the second half, MU was still attacking with only 1 goal and more importantly, they were in dire need of a decisive victory to relieve pressure. However, compared to the first half, the Red Man played even more dangerously with a lack of sharp shots and of course the chances of scoring a goal were also significantly reduced.Dẫu vậy, MU rốt cục cũng có thêm bàn thắng từ … chấm 11m. Phút 72, đội trưởng Bruno Fernandes mang về quả phạt đền rồi tự mình sút thành công để nâng tỷ số lên 2-0.During the remaining time of the second half, MU still maintained its attack power to score more goals but failed. Overall, it’s hard to say MU played well.Anyway, MU completed the set goal: winning the clearance and winning the right to continue in the FA Cup. But the real result, Coach Erik ten Hag and his team can make the Manucians feel secure and no one is sure what the next match MU will be like or what result they will get because everything is so fragile, including the performance. On the field.
