Anthony Elanga missed the decisive penalty by skying his effort as Boro caused a huge upset. The game ended 1-1 in normal time with Jadon Sancho’s 25th-minute opener canceled out by Matt Crooks shortly after the hour mark. Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty in the 20th minute, while Sancho and Bruno Fernandes both saw an effort come off the post. There was no separating the sides even in extra-time and United seemed to have the edge in the shootout....

Swansea on the other hand led by Gary Monk, did take their chances on either side of half-time as goals from Ki Sung-Yueng and Gylfi Sigurdsson guaranteed all three points for the Welsh outfit. Rooney did get one goal back for the home side straight after the half-time break. However, the United midfielders did little to create anything significant going forward, leaving their new captain frustrated throughout the game....

Aston Villa started the first half of the game on the front foot, looking more likely to score the first goal of the match than United. That ended up being true as Aston Villa’s playmaker and team captain Jack Grealish netted the first with a fine finish from the tightest of the angles. For most of the match, the Red Devils seemed to be lacking decisiveness in the final third....

The former Paris Saint-Germain, Milan and Barcelona star had joined the Red Devils in 2016, and impressed in his debut season at Old Trafford with 28 goals in 46 games. Ibrahimovic, however, suffered a serious knee injury in April 2017 that cut his campaign short, and despite making a return this season the forward was far from his best after an eight-month lay-off. Now United have announced that a one-year deal signed back in August has been cut short, meaning Zlatan is free to seek another club....

The 18-year-old has seriously enhanced his profile during a Premier League promotion push this season, with his efforts having helped his current club to reach the Championship play-off final. It remains to be seen whether the Cottagers will be back in the big time for 2018-19, but Sessegnon is expected to make that step up in the near future regardless of what happens in west London. A 16 goal return in 2017-18 has seen him register on the transfer radar of leading clubs, while sparking talk of possible senior international recognition with England, and Fredericks believes it is only a matter of time before a highly-rated talent finds himself on a stage that his ability deserves....

Red Devils 6/4 for defeat at Chelsea The United manager launched an offensive after the 1-0 victory over Tottenham on Saturday when criticising the fans for apparent murmurings at Romelu Lukaku’s recent form in front of goal and the side’s general inability to entertain with their play of late. Then, ahead of the match on Tuesday he penned: “I hope that you enjoy the game more than some of you did against Tottenham....

A product of the Old Trafford academy system, the 24-year-old made his first-team breakthrough under Louis van Gaal in 2015-16. He has gone on to make 83 appearances for United, helping them to three trophies in 2016-17 as he netted in the Community Shield and EFL Cup final. Man Utd target Matic with Juve out of race Both of those efforts came with 14 on his back, with Lingard having traded down the order last summer after previously netting in the 2016 FA Cup final while donning 35....

The poster, who used the handle Benja1405, set out the situation on parenting forum Mumsnet and asked for other users’ opinions. They explained that a father had died and left his entire estate to his two sons. The father was divorced, Benja1405 said, and both sons are married with children. One son has three children and the other has two. Benja1405 confirmed in a follow-up post that “we’re the two,” but did not specify whether they were the son or his wife....

The new owners heralded their arrival with unprecedented oomph, as they set about to break the British transfer record by buying Brazilian star Robinho from Real Madrid, for a reported fee of about €41–42 million. What’s astonishing, though, is that the deal for Robinho was completed the very day the club’s ownership changed hands. Clearly, the new owners meant nothing but business, as they continued to spend hefty amounts of money to bring in star names....

A 25 member strong Indian delegation which has come to Manchester for the Soccerex European Forum were treated to a presentation and stadium tour by the current Premier League champions Manchester City at their Etihad Stadium yesterday.

In the last fixture between the two sides earlier in the season, Riyaz Maharez missed a penalty as the game ended 0-0. Liverpool have had the better of Manchester City in recent meetings between the two sides. Liverpool eliminated City in the 2017/18 UEFA Champions League and also defeated them 4-3 in the league to end their unbeaten run last season. They are unbeaten in their last four meetings with Pep Guardiola’s side....

Lingard is good at closing down opponents, providing speed on the counter and implementing a high press, but hasn’t shown adequately that he possesses the creative mind required for the No. 10 role. United have subsequently shown a lack of final balls whenever the Englishman has played in the hole. This is negligible when the Red Devils play on the counter, like against Chelsea, but not all teams will allow United the luxury to break on the counter....

Norwich City, on the other hand, were coming into the game on the back of a win against Preston in the FA Cup. The match started with the home side dominating possession and creating chances. It wasn’t long before the Red Devils took the lead, thanks to a lovely finish from Marcus Rashford after a lovely pass from Juan Mata. Norwich only had one shot on goal in the first period and that was very well saved from David de Gea....

Luke Shaw is on the radar of many English clubs and Manchester United have acted quickly and wasted no time in chasing the English full back especially with age catching up with veteran defender Patrice Evra. Evra’s contract expires this summer and he is still coy over his future. Luke Shaw would be an ideal replacement for the French full back. He had an impressive game against United on the final day of the season at St....

United claimed a hard-fought 0-0 draw at Anfield on Monday, nullifying the threat of Liverpool’s in-form forwards — though the defensive mindset of Jose Mourinho’s side has drawn some criticism. And England striker Rashford believes United must show the same desire and grit when Mourinho faces his former club on Sunday. Mourinho must deliver result/strong> “If we can go there, produce a good team performance and hopefully get the three points, that will give us a good boost and could set us up for the rest of the season,” the 18-year-old told MUTV....
