United Review: Busy day for United sides

It was a busy day for both the Women's team in the WSL and the Under 18's side in FA Youth Cup.

Manchester City Women 1 - 1 Manchester United Women

Manchester United Women came agonisingly close to a first derby win. United had failed to beat City in five attempts in the WSL before this meeting at the Etihad Stadium, losing three times and drawing twice, but they were far from the underdogs.

The Red Devils have been sublime this season. They have exceeded expectations to mount a title challenge. The target in many minds was making the top three and entering the Champions League for the first time. However, they look capable of winning the WSL.

Let's explore some of the best social media comments

One fan tweeted: "We should have won this. But the players have done so well, 3 points at the Emirates and 1 point today. It has been a good season so far. We need to get Russo to sign the contract!"

That game was there to win, where were the subs, poor game management by United, poor decision-making at up top and poor defending led to their goal. their defence was there to get at. Two points were lost in a do-or-die season for the top three. Very disappointed as a fan."

Twitter user KB gave a balanced perspective: "Negatives and positives to take. Very frustrating we gave away a cheap goal and why aren’t the subs being used properly? Standout performances from Galton, Batlle and Blundell. We will miss Bøe Risa when she inevitably leaves us in January as she deserves far better!"

Crystal Palace Under 18's 1 - 3 Manchester United Under 18's 

They weren't the only United side in action. The Under 18's began their defence of the FA Youth Cup with a potentially tricky trip to Crystal Palace.

 They put in a great performance with a 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace in a thrilling encounter at a foggy Selhurst Park.

The young Red Devils will now face Stoke City or Blackpool away, with the fourth-round tie needing to be played by Saturday 21 January 2023.

United Review: Reds bounce back from Liverpool humiliation

 Manchester United 4 - 1 Real Betis Manchester United beat Real Betis 4-1 in the first leg of the Europa League Round-of-16 clash. Marcus Rashford opened the scoring for the Reds in the sixth minute, with a rifling strike that emphatically flew past Claudio Bravo. Despite an excellent start by United, our goal would be cancelled out just after the half-hour mark due to the on-loan Ayoze Perez firing across David De Gea into the bottom corner.  Erik's reds prove too strong Antony restored United's lead with a trademark effort that curled beyond a stranded Bravo, who could only watch as it hit the top corner. Minutes later, Bruno Fernandes got in on the act from Luke Shaw's corner. Our no.8 wasn't picked up as he wandered into the area to make it 3-1 on the night.  The final goal fell to Wout Weghorst, scoring his first in front of the Old Trafford faithful. Second-half substitute Facundo Pellistri was at the heart of the move, originally teeing up Scott McTominay whose s
