Bruno Fernandes faced criticism for his role as the Manchester United captain, with doubts about his ability to work hard for the team when needed. Adding to the concerns, he received a yellow card for arguing with the referee, leading to his suspension for the next game against Liverpool at Anfield.

Despite the statistics, Bournemouth outperformed Manchester United at Old Trafford today. The visitors rightfully earned this win, and the fans who stayed until the end showed their disappointment with boos.

Bournemouth celebrated a significant victory, while Manchester United experienced a challenging defeat. The embarrassment for United could have been more pronounced if VAR hadn’t disallowed Dango Ouattara’s late goal due to a handball. It’s clear that Erik ten Hag’s team did not perform well, reminiscent of the struggling United team under the previous coach, Ole Gunnar Solskjær. The boos from the fans at the end of the game were not unexpected.
Bournemouth’s second goal in the 67th minute secured the win, marking their first-ever victory at Old Trafford. A mistake by Luke Shaw allowed Bournemouth to intercept the ball, and Dominic Solanke passed to Marcus Tavernier, who set up Philip Billing for a memorable header.

After an early goal by Dominic Solanke in the fifth minute, he had another chance near the end of the game. By the final whistle, Bournemouth had increased their goal count from five to eight in their seventh visit to Old Trafford for a league match. This outcome leaves Manchester United with a goal difference of minus three, having won nine matches and lost seven, highlighting the unpredictable nature of Ten Hag’s team.

Privately, the manager may acknowledge uncertainty about which team will show up on any given match day. Will it be the well-coordinated team that defeated Chelsea 2-1 on Wednesday? Or the less impressive team that struggled from the moment Solanke scored from Lewis Cook’s pass?

In under 10 minutes, Senesi scored their third goal of the afternoon. This time, a basic corner caused trouble as Senesi, unmarked, headed past a stranded Onana into the bottom corner.

Despite facing the risk of losing, the Reds tried to find a way back into the game. However, they couldn’t create any clear chances to trouble Neto in the opposing goal.

Up next for Ten Hag’s team is a midweek match against Bayern Munich, where UEFA Champions League qualification is on the line.

This afternoon, it was the latter. However, Bournemouth is in good form, having earned 13 points from the last 15 available.

Bournemouth achieved a significant victory with an impressive performance!
