JOSHUA ZIRKZEE sat on the bench and watched as different teams had chances.
He then came out on the field and showed everyone how to score.
A great start after coming on as a substitute in the 60th minute and scoring the game-winning flick in the 87th minute. Wow.
The Bologna player, who cost £36.5 million, finished off a great move from deep inside their own half.
At the end, Casemiro did a great job of setting up Alejandro Garnacho on the right, and his fine low cross was met by Zirkzee’s raised boot in front of a wild Stretford End.
praise for how well Manchester United played that night, but it didn’t come with that goal.
They had several chances before that goal, but Bruno Fernandes missed the best two. It looked like they wouldn’t score in their first game of the season.
From the start, there wasn’t that well-known shooter on the field, and it showed.
It is safe to say that Red Devils fans were feeling a mix of joy and fear before the game.
It’s exciting because they’ve signed four new players, but only Nassair Mazraoui played last night.
Ten Hag now has a new teaching staff and a management team above him. Their job is likely to be to find more Dutch players.
A new tunnel, too.
The same place, but better.
Being afraid comes from hearing that the club is still getting hurt a lot, just like it did last season.
Rasmus Hojlund and Leny Yoro are both out because they got hurt in the first half of their first pre-season game in the US.
One of Luke Shaw’s plans has changed.
The manager also said before the game that the team was not ready because players had to join the rest of the group late in the summer because of big tournaments.
The new players, on the other hand, need time to get used to the team, which is why he is letting Zirkzee get up to speed slowly.
However, the crowd’s roar as the teams came out was just as loud as when they won the FA Cup last May.
It was a great win, and manager Ten Hag said, “The togetherness, belief, and determination on show is what we want to see in every game this season and beyond.”
