Match Overview and Key Players
00:00:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, like the beacons, welcome back to the Daily Manchester United. I'm Kieran, and that was a win. A 2-0 win. Lovely stuff. we end the episode there? There's nothing else we need to talk about. Nothing else happened in the game. No, that's it. Bye, everyone. No. 2-0 goals from Mason Mount and Benjamin Seshko making it for Seshko back-to-back Premier League games in goals, which is very nice indeed, isn't it?
00:00:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Yeah, it started off the game really well, didn't we? In terms of Mason Mount, he was jolly on the spot. It's a lovely touch in the box for him to just sort of settle the ball and then finish it very nicely into the bottom right corner. is it like... it Does he catch it cleanly?
00:00:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
i mean, I'll let him decide. But it is a good finish and it brings us 1-0. And listening on 5 Live in the UK, I sort of had to imagine, you know picture the scene. And when I look back at it and I sort of looked up,
00:01:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
a highlight, wink, wink, nudge, nudge. I was able to see what it was like. It was a pretty good goal. I enjoyed it. And yeah, good for Mason Mount. Good goal. Deserves that as well. So we'll see how he, you know, hopefully he can push on.
Game Highlights and Strategies
00:01:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
But it was a game where Sunderland, you know, really started out as like that four two three one and It was not working. You know, this was ah this was a Sunderland team that I was expecting to really put up a huge fight.
00:01:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
But then we had the second goal ah from Benjamin Sesko. And that really put you know nails in in in the order at that point. It's a long throw.
00:01:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think it's headed on by a Sunderland player. on that one. And then it's Eshko, who I don't know how he does it, but the reaction is so, so clinical to just stick the foot out in the right place at the right time and just put it past the keeper and roofs, who himself made some great saves in the game, but it made it two nil.
00:02:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Roofs as well made the save against, Bruno Fernandes, where Fernandes manages to get a space free, tries to curl it into the top right-hand corner, and Ruf just about makes sure he puts it onto the bar. It's a fantastic save.
00:02:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then Ahmed running in, trying to follow up, misses just a huge miscue. and He'll try and say it's a cross, I'm sure, but it is what it is. um Hey,
00:02:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
We got three points, moves us ah within a
Team Performance and Future Prospects
00:02:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
point of Sunderland. that That's just, I couldn't have imagined going into that. I couldn't imagined, ah you know, getting into a point where we were going to be so close to Sunderland. You know, they're big rivals in this one.
00:02:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
But that result at this time of recording does move us, you know, to 10 points, which is amazing. Amazing. That's what we're all here for. That's why we're here.
00:02:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
But that result, at the time of recording, does move us up to eighth place with teams below us, Chelsea, Everton and Brighton still yet to play. Also, Brentford ah yet to play their game. If they win, they'll get a better goal difference than Manchester United. So that will move them ahead.
00:03:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
And well, yeah, we could you know end the we game week, I think, as low as 12th. looking at it, but to be honest with you, three points, and thought we played quite well, especially in the first half. We played really well. we It kind of, I felt, should have been three, four, maybe five in that first half.
00:03:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
We were so, you know, it sounded like, i'm I'm having to go by what it sounds like, so if I don't get finer details right, I do apologise. Three o'clock kickoffs in the UK are behind Nothing.
00:03:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
not allowed to watch them. so So you'll have to bear with me whilst I have to sort of explain whilst I listen. But the big story, the massive story going into this game, of course, was at the dropping of Altai and bringing in Senna Lamens. Lamens? Lamon? I don't think we've...
00:04:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
really secured and and found out what his name is just yet. However, we'll call him what he likes because he had a good game. I don't think he had a lot to do in that first half.
00:04:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
was the second half. We really had you know had to start relying on him and make sure that he was you know a goalkeeper, which he is. ah He was claiming crosses. yeah Old Trafford clo cheering at a goalkeeper ah claiming a cross.
00:04:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's how bad it's been over the last two or three years. It's been... ha But there we go. He gets a clean sheet on his Premier League debut, and that's all you can ask for.
00:04:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
So that was really good. I thought, um youre from the sounds of it, Jorou was having a good game. You know, Bermot had that assist and then sort of sounded like in the second half...
00:04:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
It sort of so started to struggle slightly. But, you know, this was a team and this was a result where it just seemed like, again, we seem to let off the pedal in the second half when we when we get to it.
Critiques and Analysis
00:05:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
But I thought Fernandes as well, apart from that shot, I didn't really hear a lot from him in the game. um But to sort of end the first half, heart-in-mouth moment, when I hear Vicky Sparks on Five Live say, oh, and that's Sesco in trouble with a high boot, I'm thinking, oh, right, okay, brilliant. Thanks for that.
00:05:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
We'll be down to 10. Sunderland incoming. Here we go again. But no, I managed to sort of try and look back at at what the offence was. And that's that's on field being given as a penalty?
00:05:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
And even worse, Vio looked at it, saw it came off a Sunderland player, off his head, and they gave a corner.
00:05:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Amazing.
00:05:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Wonderful stuff. um Hey, managed to get overturned. So that was that was one half of the job. How they gave a corner from it, I'm not entirely sure. But yeah is what it is.
00:06:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
We managed to not concede a penalty, which was very nice. I was very much appreciative of that. When we come back, we'll have a bit more into the second half and maybe a bit more of a raw reaction as to how the team was going to be lining up.
00:06:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
um I've already forgotten my head versus heart, but it's pretty similar, in fairness, to to what my heart said than rather what I thought was going to happen. So when we come back, we'll discuss more.
00:07:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
The second half then was a little bit tepid, I think. It was a case of, you know, once it got past the hour mark, it was just trying to close the game down and make sure that Sutherland didn't have too many chances.
00:07:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
They still had chances, don't get me wrong. you know, Lamens, Lamens, Le Mans were still being tested towards the end of that game. But I think it was a case of they were, they sound like they weren't, you know,
00:07:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
clear-cut chances. It was a case of yeah it was being managed, which is a phrase I didn't think anybody would be saying at that point. But um yeah, it was it was fun to see. Hang on a minute.
00:08:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that wind's affected. wouldnt at wind That wind Old Trafford affected here. Sorry, apologies. um Yeah, so it was a case of managing the game and managing...
00:08:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
making sure that everything was o okay. I think we just about did that. sounded like it's just about we did that. and And from what Leon Osman was saying on the the Five Live ah coverage was that it just seemed like Sunderland was just running out of steam and everything they were trying to do just wasn't working and that belief was starting to fade.
00:08:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
So in the end, it was a case of, well, just make sure this game gets closed down and and shut off and and make sure you know if there is a counter, we try and make sure we ah we get... We get there.
00:08:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
um A couple of heavy passes as well from the likes of, I think, Fernandes and Umbermo. ah You know, having those little bit of a heavy passes ah allowed Roofs to just sort of claim balls that he he he was able to.
00:09:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
But I think coming into the start of this one, I think, I mean, i mean I'll put it in our little... ah group chat that of art of of of us all together in the United side that I was like, I'm going to have to sound a klaxon here because I wanted this to happen. I didn't think it was going to happen and now it is happening and now I'm excited.
00:09:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
So that was great. It was great to see Le Mén starting goal. Hopefully, that's the start of many things and many better things to come. The back three, i think I only got Shaw wrong. Shaw started instead of Maguire, who I thought was going to start.
00:09:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Other than that, De Ligt and Joros started. Ahmad did start at that right wing back, and it sounded like he did all right. So that's good. Apart from that glaring miss on the follow-up to hopefully, well, would have hopefully made it threeneal In any case, thought he did okay. Sounded like he did okay. So that's good enough for me, especially the 2-0 win.
00:09:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Casemiro Pard paired up with Fernandes in that midfield and Dalo. That's when I got wrong. Dorgou didn't start this game. It was actually Dalo who started it. And, well... Him and Shaw had that mix-up in the ah and the first half. We could have easily gone 1-0 down so early on in this match, but we didn't somehow.
00:10:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
And that meant we were able to just sort of have that solid base. And then, of course, we had the yeah the front three, Umbermo, Sesko and Mount. I thought Cunha was going to start. Cunha was put on the bench for this game, did come on.
00:10:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
And had a couple of chances. ah I think overall, i think it was ah decent performance. I think it was it was enough to get us three points, but I don't think it was enough to sort of say, yeah, we're going to be challenging for Europe. I'm not convinced just yet.
00:10:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was a great opening half an hour. And after that, we just sort of tried to you know put the game to bed and... you know Going into the second half, it was just you know wind it down, you know calm down, slow the game down and almost let Sunderland into it.
00:10:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
we Did we feel threatened? I certainly did feel threatened at some of these opportunities. But nevertheless, three points on the board. Hooray! We've got to double digits in points. That is fantastic. We're well on the way to at least matching the points tally from last season.
00:11:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
So go and enjoy the rest of your weekend. You can watch Match of the Day tonight. So it's all good. It's all really, really good stuff. International break next. We have Liverpool coming up, but we don't we don't want to think about that right now. um Not a chance.
00:11:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah So international break. is very much on the cards. We play again 19th of October. So we are away at Liverpool, which plenty of plenty of time to sort of think about what's going to happen here.
00:11:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
um i don't have a great feeling about it, but maybe Blind Optimism will help me through. And it'll help us through as well. Well, that's a little bit of a short reaction for you, a raw reaction to the game and three points on the board. So I'm happy. I'm sure you're happy. Let us know down below who was your man of the match.
00:11:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Who was the one who, well, basically sealed this game for us? Was it perhaps ah Mason Mount running in that sort of box to box and that attacking midfield? seems to have a great game. When he's on form, he's absolutely brilliant.
00:12:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Or perhaps Cescou, with that just instinctive strikers-poachers finish, able to get two in front. Perhaps Le Mendes was your man the match as well. Or, you know, you can only have one.
00:12:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, no. Actually, no. Yeah, you can only have one. Don't get greedy. But let us know down below. And maybe who was one that you were surprised started? Let us know. Join the conversation down below.
