Derby county vs manchester united

Manchester United coasted lớn a comfortable victory over Wayne Rooney’s Derby lớn reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup

And with that, I’ll be off. Thanks for being here, & sorry for that second-hand outage. Here’s the match report again. Bye!

Philip Cocu has a post-match debrief. He praises Wayne Rooney’s performance, saying the player’s “vision và his handling & his passing skill is just a pleasure khổng lồ watch”. Also:

I was a difficult game. We tried lớn play football against them but you saw the difference in quality. Especially individually - tốc độ of handling, awareness, the passing speed. But I think some periods in the trò chơi we played good football, created chances, especially early in the game and the first 25 minutes of the second half. Get a goal in the second half, 1-2, maybe something’s possible, but at 3-0 of course it was over.

It might sound strange after a 3-0 defeat but I’m still happy with the performance. With a lot of young players, a great experience for them. It was a good experience, and a deserved win for Manchester United. It’s a disappointment we couldn’t get the surprise we all tried lớn pull off.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a chat. He says Rooney “sometimes had too much time on the ball for my liking”, and that Harry Maguire should be fit for the weekend. Also:

There were some scary moments there, especially early on I don’t think we played particularly well. Beginning of the second half I thought they put some pressure on us, but a nice goal from Odion và a fantastic save from Wayne’s không tính tiền kick.

Odion’s coming in, và it’s great for us to lớn have him to điện thoại tư vấn upon. He’s a different type of striker, và he scores ... The first one, the ball’s beneath him và not many strikers could dig that out.

Luke Shaw has a chat. He insists the opening goal is his: “There’s no way Jesse’s claiming that,” he says.

The first 15-20 minutes was very tough. We didn’t start as good as we can, then we got the goal and I think we were still under pressure at times but we came through it.

I think we’re in a very confident period at the moment, with results but also we’re scoring goals & also keeping it shut at the back. We’re very confident. It’s a massive game for us on Sunday and we’re all looking forward to lớn it.

An impressively humdrum win for United, that, navigating a potential banana skin in largely drama-free style.

90+2 mins: apologies for the lengthy update outage. Anyway, the match is all but over. Brandon Williams sneaks in a late booking.

89 min: Free-kick to lớn Derby on the edge of the box, although it might be a little wide to take a shot. Rooney is over it … WHAT A SAVE FROM ROMERO! Rooney shot was flying into the top bin, but Romero got across & just about tipped it over the bar.

86 min: Perhaps a little surprising to lớn see Rooney complete the full 90 minutes here. Not only would the substitution allow United fans to lớn give him a proper round of applause, but you would think Cocu would want to keep him talisman fresh and injury không tính phí for the weekend. Derby travel lớn Blackburn Rovers on Sunday.

85 mins: Simon has been having technical difficulties, so we will see you through the rest of the match. There have been no more goals, although Rooney has just sent a left-foot shot sailing over the bar. Both sets of fans chant his name.

And that should seal it! Ighalo plays the ball to Mata on the right, runs onto the Spaniard’s pull-back and hits a shot into Bogle. It bounces back khổng lồ him, và this time he crashes it into the roof of the net!

69 mins: Derby’s post-interval resurgence seems khổng lồ have faded. Pereira has a shot for United now, but it goes well over the bar.

66 mins: Some nice approach play from United, but it ends with Mata shooting poorly when he probably should have chipped the ball across to Ighalo at the far post.

64 mins: Now Bailly challenges Sibley, but turns up just an instant after the ball had departed, gets nothing but man và is booked.

61 mins: Lingard’s long pass towards Fernandes is cut out by Roos, who heads clear và runs into Forsyth. The ball drops khổng lồ Mata, whose 40-yard cpu is collected by the back-pedalling keeper.

60 mins: McTominay tackles Sibley cleanly, leaves his foot in a bit longer than he needed to, & the pair have words again.

56 mins: Then a matter of seconds later, McTominay shoots wide from đôi mươi yards. The scent of goals hangs in the Derby air.

56 mins: Save! Shaw gets into the Derby area, cuts inside onto his right foot, and then scuffs a poor shot at Roos, who would have been in serious trouble had he got any power nguồn or accuracy.

54 mins: Bogle, whose rampages down the right have been a feature of these opening minutes of the second half, is found in space again. But United close him down, & force Derby lớn turn backwards và pass the ball back lớn their defence.

53 mins: Turns out McTominay is completely & absolutely fine. I think Sibley’s boot only came very close lớn his face, rather than making contact, as the pair came down. The United player thinks this was deliberate, but replays are inconclusive.

52 mins: McTominay and Sibley fall over each other, and though the Derby player gets up, McTominay starts rolling around clutching his face.

50 mins: So close for Derby! Rooney’s excellent pass finds Bogle on the right, whose cross is even more excellent, and Waghorn glances a header just wide of the far post!

47 mins: Bird’s 30-yarder deflects off Lindelof, but close enough to Romero for the goalkeeper khổng lồ adjust and collect.

45+4 mins: That’s it, for now! United have had 65% of possession, 75% of the shots and 100% of the goals. Both were a bit lucky, but overall they deservedly lead against a Derby side that has never significantly threatened Sergio Romero’s goal.

45+2 mins: Derby attack! It’s been a while, but Knight gets down the left & crosses, Waghorn shoots, & there the good news ends. It hits Lindelof, rebounds lớn Waghorn, comes off his head, is controlled by Fred with the clear use of his hand, và then Rooney is booked for stopping United’s counter-attack.

Another! United’s second is also a little fortunate. Shaw picks out a fine pass lớn Ighalo, & though Forsyth tackles him the ball bounces back off Lowe & nicely into the Nigerian’s path, and this time he sidefoots it into the corner from six yards!
