Wow, Pickford makes a save from a Rashford freekick but his positioning and reaction time were questionable.

Knight of Thorgothshire Sun 15 Dec 2019, 2:30 pm

Possession 72/28, but a lot of that possession that Utd have had has been spent along the back four.

Knight of Thorgothshire Sun 15 Dec 2019, 2:31 pm

And Baines did come on for Digne.

Knight of Thorgothshire Sun 15 Dec 2019, 2:32 pm

DCL with a good shot from 30+ yards out, straight at De Gea, but I don't mind that the players have a pop at goal like that.

It's raining pretty hard from what I can tell.

BBC - "The rain has drenched Duncan Ferguson's suit jacket and so he just politely removes it and braves the Trafford rain in just a shirt and tie now. You try handing him an umbrella."

Utd continue to try the long ball over the top, with limited success so far really.

OG!!!!!!!!!! (Tell me about it KOT)

The corner gets whipped in, DCL and Mina go after the ball as does De Gea who pretty much misses the ball but slightly redirects it right on to Lindelof who guides the ball in to his own net.

No need to sign Lindelof Very Happy

Possession the last 10 minutes: 41/59.

Knight of Thorgothshire Sun 15 Dec 2019, 2:47 pm

2 minutes of added time in the first half.

Knight of Thorgothshire Sun 15 Dec 2019, 2:51 pm

HT, 0-1 after an OG by Lindelof.

Utd started better but in fairness haven't really created much of substance. We have been defending well, and have done rather well to create chances here and there, especially from corners.

Which makes me wonder, is the Utd team pretty short? McGuire and Lindelof are pretty tall, around 190cm I would think, but Shaw looks short for instance.

Pundits saying goal should not have been given....

Knight of Thorgothshire Sun 15 Dec 2019, 2:58 pm

Duncan Ferguson celebrated that goal like, well, like you'd expect really. A half sprint down the touchline towards the very vocal away end, fist clenched.

Bringing back bad memories for Steffen Freund.

Yeah, the commentators said it should have stood, reading on the BBC a lot of pundits are saying it should not have been given due to a bit of contact on De Gea.

It really could have gone either way. Granted, I agree with the commentators that De Gea should have been stronger. Lindelof should never have been "exposed" to that ball, De Gea should have punched it clear.

The positive thing though is that we actually got the call! cheers

As per the BBC:

GOAL - Manchester United 0-1 Everton
Victor Lindelof (OG 36 mins)

Goal given!

Right, let's describe that one. Leighton Baines whips in a beauty of a corner, David de Gea can't punch it out under pressure, the ball hits Victor Lindelof facing his own goal and bobbles in.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin had a hand up and into the face of De Gea as he tried to punch it. Keepers get everything so I'm surprised that one wasn't overturned...
