A late Rasmus Hojlund-Equalizer ensured that Manchester United avoided a record injury to the 16th Premier League of the season in Bournemouth on Sunday in Bournemouth.
The cherries went to three huge points next season to play in Europe, but their efforts were given hard sending and Hojlund’s instinctive finish, after Antoine Semenyo scored the goal in the first half.
United, who remains the 14th place, is now paying attention to the Athletic Club, while Bournemouth will end the weekend to Brighton and Fulhams Siegen on Saturday.
How the game unfolds
While Ruben Amorim has made it clear that the Europa League is its overwhelming priority in the track, the man, the UTD leader, decided on her trip to Bilbao on Thursday.
In the XI of the last Sunday against wolves, five changes were made, with Luke Shaw started his first season.
Bournemouth was satisfied with this that United had a large part of the ball in the opening phase. The visitors produced a rather controlled opening in view of the pressure of cherries. A dazzling Kobbie Mainoo sequence meant that the midfielder turned directly into Kepa Arrizabalaga, while the first of several efforts by Alejandro Garnacho in the opening time was only pulled far from the post of Spaniard.
United may have the feeling that Tyler Adams received tough punishment for his full -blooded challenge for Garnacho, and they came immediately after the restart. Bournemouth, who changed efficiently in the last third, was exceeded a sloppy breakdown. Evanilson’s intelligent discharge made it possible for Antoine Semenyo to bring the opening goal home.
As a result, Amorim’s men fought for a great reaction, but towards the end of the first half there were some positive signs. Garnacho had attempted an attempt that had saved Kepa, after Illia Zabarnyi had not dealt with Bruno Fernandes’ Pinpoint pass behind Bournemouth’s defense, and the Argentinian concluded the opening period by shot far after he had entered from the right flank.
United felt the anger of the hosts at the beginning of the second half, whereby the cherries were able to progress and penetrate the hour before the hour before without expanding their advantage. Dango Ouattara came closest when his free kick fell out of Andre Onana’s right wing, but his efforts hit the inside of the post.
After United held a big boost from Bournemouth in the middle of the second half, Evanilson was sent for his challenge in Noussair Mazraoui, although he was clearly slipping on earth.
The Red Devils struggled to maintain the pressure after the hosts had dropped to ten, but Bournemouth succumbed to a flood in the final phase. It looked like a defense that was granted less than a Tor A game in the home floor in the Premier League this season after United was pulled several times near the drawing of the level.
The moment of United finally arrived, and Hojlund was the man who was delivered during death.
Take a look at the player reviews of Bournemouth 1: 1 Manchester United here.
For the first time since February 2024, Luke Shaw was in Manchester United Start XI.
Due to a series of setbacks of injuries, it was a few mighty frustrating years for the full-back, and his fitness problems limited him to just a handful of appearances this season. Shaw started on the left central defender on Sunday, but had a lot more fun than he operated more in the last quarter of the competition as a conventional full -back.
Systematic problems meant that Shaw’s influence on the structure was limited. A few excellent crosses cause problems after Bournemouth dropped to ten.
There was a touch of rust, and Shaw did not escape the vitality without a booking, but these moments on the overlap should ignite a certain optimism regarding the full -back. He can be looked after better than wingedback for Amorim because he has Patrick Dorgu’s current fights.
The Danish striker was greatly checked in the second year, and Hojlund has contributed little to shift the opinion of vitality due to the majority of the competition.
The striker again fought to participate in the procedures, whereby his touch Count Limited and the shot count zero was limited before his end in added time. While he is undoubtedly not supported by one side that does not contract as a collective under Amorim with the ball, Hojlund is not yet able to cut moments for himself.
He would undoubtedly have been punished on the south coast because of an anonymous idea, but instead Hojlund has something to create something in which there is a crucial game against the Athletic Club.
The football gods conspired against Bournemouth this weekend. After Brighton and Fulham beaten late on Saturday to win their respective games, the cherries were here at the end of an inproof goal.
As a result, Andoni Iraola’s team will end the game week in a tenth and play in Europe for the first time in Europe with the work before the last four games. An eighth place can be enough.
Three points here would have strongly strengthened their chances, and they seemed to achieve a big win after the strike in the first half of Semenyo. United missed a few late in front of Hojlund’s level, but there is no way that Bournemouth would defend his box with so much strength if Evanilson had not received his marching commands because he had slipped into a somewhat reckless foul against Mazraoui.
The red card of the Brazilian was undoubtedly hard, but some will argue that Adams were lucky enough to stay on the field shortly before Bournemouth’s opening goal. Fluctuations and roundabouts.
