Wetin go chop our hearts for Boxing Day match for Old Trafford?
As the euphoria for table dey high, Manchester United don japa with correct 1-0 win against Newcastle wey no be small matter. Patrick Dorgu, the young blood wey just join United, don use him left foot scatter ground with sweet volley in the 24th minute. Na him first goal for Manchester United and e show say omo boy dey grow!
As match dey go, Newcastle wey don dey struggle for away matches come jeje dey try break through, but Senne Lammens, the Man United keeper, no gree make any goal enter. Na dem dey hammer the ball but e dey miss target like say na movie dem dey act. Talk say Newcastle get better possession, but na United dey hold ground well-well!
First half come finish for Old Trafford with United dey lead, but wetin go happen second half? Na wah! Newcastle no come relax as dem increase pressure like say dem wan collect points back. But chop the matter, United defense shine bright as dem hold strong to clean sheet for just second time dis season. All dem mad defenders dey gree say “make we no allow any ball enter!”
E good wey Casemiro no gree make noises for bench when e see in name for substitution board. Everybody dey shout as Newcastle dey pump pressure, but Dorgu dey continue dey show say e hustle and bustle no go be in vain.
This win carry United enter fifth position for the table, just dey outside Champions League spot by goal difference. E mean say dem dey one step close to the big boys as dem dey eye for Europe!
But as for Newcastle, e no sweet at all because dem dey 11th place and no be like say dem wan climb ladder anytime soon. Coach Eddie Howe get plenty work to do as dem dey find their self on the road. Dem no fit win since October, and Turf Moor dey wait for dem next, no be small wahala o!
On top this matter, I go shout say big kudos to Diogo Dalot for the assist wey lead to Dorgu’s goal. And e no dey forget say now wey December dey shine bright, dem don set their mind to carry new year with better performance before the year run out!
