(Dan Tri) – With the only goal scored by Rashford, Man Utd won 1-0 against Brentford in the compensation match of round 25 of the Premier League.
After three consecutive matches of only drawing and losing, Man Utd found victory when overcoming Brentford with a score of 1-0 in the compensation match of round 25 of the Premier League.
The victory of Ten Hag teachers and students was not really impressive, unable to `revenge` after losing 0-4 in the first leg, but Man Utd currently cannot ask for too much.

With home advantage, Man Utd proactively pushed the team up to press the opponent, Brentford retreated the entire team to defend, so the ball almost only rolled in the away team’s field.
In the first half of the first half, Man Utd had a few shots, notably Antony’s left-footed shots, but the ball’s destination was all outside the goal.
The turning point of the match came in the 27th minute. From his teammate’s hanging ball, Sabitzer rushed down and headed the ball sideways for Rashford to finish with his legs on the right side of the center of the penalty area to score the opening goal of the match.
Rashford initially ran down close to the goal, standing a few meters below the opponent’s defense, but didn’t have the ball so he ran back.
