United Review: Casemiro shines in comfortable win

Manchester United 3 - 0 Nottingham Forest

It was a straightforward night for the Red Devils as we brushed aside Forest with relative ease. 

Man United 3 - 0 Nottingham Forest

First goal was a training exercise worked to perfection

We were ahead in the 19th minute from a set-piece move that would have brought a smile to the face of Teddy Sheringham, the former United and Forest striker who had particular success with goals from near-post corners. On this occasion, Christian Eriksen angled the ball along the ground and Rashford swept it into the net, finishing as he ran at full speed.

Hennessey at fault for the second goal

It was 2-0 a few minutes later after the slippery conditions deceived Hennessey. They took advantage of an overload on the left flank as Fernandes worked the ball forward to Rashford, who found Martial on the edge of the penalty area. His shot was side-footed, weak and, despite going through Willy Boly’s legs, should have been saved, but the ball squirmed from Hennessey’s grasp and trickled over the line. 

VAR to the rescue?

The away side had thought they had pulled one back just before the interval when Ryan Yates got on the end of a free-kick with his head but his finish flicked off Boly, who was in an offside position. When Jesse Lingard was taken off clutching his right hamstring that was already heavily strapped.

Fred impresses in brief cameo

Ten Hag was punching the air in delight in the final minutes when Fred added to the goals. He finished in the manner of a striker after fellow Brazilian Casemiro raided forward and threaded the ball through for his team-mate.

Highlights and reaction

Highlights from Manchester United - YouTube

One YouTuber commented: "Casemiro was unreal, amazing player who is making a massive difference - have to say as well though, that little run and stop from Varane at the corner to confuse the defenders and give Rashford some space to score was fantastic."

Another added: "Even without seeing the stats you know Casemiro had the most interceptions, tackles and defensive involvements. The cement between the stones. Clear man of the match"
