United Review: United Women have memorable afternoon

Manchester United Women 5 - 0 Aston Villa Women

Manchester United Women had an afternoon to remember at Old Trafford, beating Aston Villa 5-0 in front of over 30,000 supporters - the team's record home crowd.

Marc Skinner's side took the lead just after the 10-minute mark through captain Katie Zelem, who reacted quickly to hit home a loose ball. 

The second came just before the half-hour point, with Leah Galton finishing a wonderful team move that involved excellent combination play from Ella Toone and Alessia Russo. The Reds kicked off the second 45 with yet another great team goal with Ona Batlle playing in Toone, whose ball across the box was hammered into Hannah Hampton's goal from Russo. 

A dazzling display from Batlle was then topped off with a thunderous strike that struck the crossbar and flew in. And the Spaniard was on course to give United their fifth and final goal of the game, setting up second-half substitute Rachel Williams for a tap in.

One Man United fan commented saying: "We look like the real deal this season! I hope Alessia signs soon because the summer will come quick, or we’ll lose her."

Another added: "I cannot believe how much we thrashed them by, would have been six if not for that odd refereeing call near the end. I think playing at OT must have helped. I wish they would move them there permanently instead of making them play in Leigh, where half of us cannot really get to at all."

The United performance delighted the fans across the social media platforms. Bankzy tweeted the following in response to the United post:

Another commented: " Women football seems to more entertaining than men football nowadays."

United Review: Reds progress after memorable night

Manchester United 2 - 1 Barcelona (United win 4-3 on aggregate) Manchester United produced a stunning second-half comeback to reach the Europa League last 16.  Brazilian duo Fred and Antony, who came on as a half-time substitute, both drilled home low first-time shots in front of a bouncing Stretford End that had older United fans thinking back to a memorable night in 1984. It was a victory that looked so unlikely at half-time as Barcelona led thanks to Robert Lewandowski's 18th-minute penalty. Antony's arrival at half-time changed the course of the tie as it injected more pace into United's attacks. The Red Devils now move on to Wembley, where they will look to collect their first silverware since 2017. United will face Real Betis in the next round of the competition.  This was the reaction after full-time.  Incredible Scenes At Old Trafford As Manchester United Stars Celebrate Victory Over Barcelona - YouTube More reaction coming up on  UCL and UEL (eurosuperfootball.bl
