robson and we've got premier league action coming right up it's manchester united versus brighton and hovalbia thanks derek as always this should be a good game great atmosphere inside the stadium we've got two teams full of quality some interesting match-ups and two coaches that want to play an attractive brand of football what more could you ask for [Music] good one this is the team manchester united will go with navi de gea between the posts harry maguire plays alongside rafael varan in central defense jaden sancho starts with marcus rashford in the wide positions and leading the line today is cristiano ronaldo and the team selected for brighton and hope albion well it's a defensive lineup that's for sure but their wing-backs and at least one of their midfield players will need to break forward when they regain possession just to give them a threat going forward [Applause] [Applause] First Half and the match gets underway here at old trafford let's hope we're in for something special [Applause] he's beaten as man tremendous block [Applause] eriksen here's ronaldo [Applause] christian eriksen now well he could run onto it here a really top-notch piece of defending cristiano ronaldo one of the greatest players of the current era and you'd have to imagine stuart he's going to have some sort of role to play in this one well it's his ability with the ball at his feet that makes him such a good player he can go past defenders with ease he can play in tight areas and he has that bit of trickery as well i'm really looking forward to seeing him play today erickson jaden sancho here's ronaldo bruno fernandez and return to ronaldo and they keep the ball moving [Applause] he's got the right idea with that buzz well that is how to run at defenders [Applause] great strong tackle throw in forthcoming [Applause] and space to cross it and return to trosar and in the end he's run out of space [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] eriksen well possession seeded [Applause] can they create something we wondered who was going to win the race the answer the goalkeeper [Applause] cristiano ronaldo they've regained possession [Applause] cristiano ronaldo lisandro martinez [Applause] christian erickson threads it through [Applause] and how about that for a save [Applause] another short corner here lisandro martinez maguire very comfortable when in possession no degree of difficulty at all for the keeper [Applause] corsair kaiseido plenty of players waiting in the middle oh good defending to stop a decent looking attack breaking at face [Applause] it's with martinez well when you sit off like this you invite pressure sancho and you need your defender to take charge [Applause] ericsson [Applause] and back with bruno finance it's a neat move vital intervention united looking to forge ahead let's see if the corner helps them well they've been frustrated for quite a while now but these fans have suddenly come to life [Applause] [Applause] taking shorts [Applause] strong play here [Applause] well he's giving us away well there it is united have had most of the ball but unless they find some inspiration from somewhere i'm not sure where the winner will come from they certainly need to up the tempo ronaldo threading it through a goal on the back of sustained pressure now they deservedly hold the advantage well we won't get tired of watching this because the interplay around the box is wonderful and once he gets onto it he just smashes it past the keeper with great technique what an emphatic finish that is [Applause] so they're playing again it's manchester united with the lead here [Applause] now there to intercept [Applause] cristiano ronaldo bruno fernandez there's a slide rule pass well nothing comes of it in the end because the flag has gone up stuart well he knew where the space was but he's just been too eager and that's why he's offside [Applause] cristiano ronaldo [Applause] eriksen oh big chance he's found the back of the net marcus rashford [Applause] well here it is again and it's a superbly weighted through ball to break that defensive line and his movement so clever once he gets on to it there's only one thought in his head smash it as hard as possible what a good goal [Applause] now [Applause] and the electronic board delivers the news two minutes of stoppage time bruno fernandez not with rashford [Applause] bruno fernandez has it here's luke shaw rashford [Applause] and that will do it for the first half here at the theater of dreams well he often cuts the figure of a thinking person's footballer and stewart he's thought his way throughout this match well he has that assist to his name but it's been his control of that midfield area that's made him the outstanding player today every time he gets on the ball he seems to find the right pass Second Half and the second half underway it really was a dazzling first 45 from united [Applause] eriksen [Applause] here's ronaldo oh stylish ball what can they do now [Applause] free kick awarded then by the referee [Applause] granite well [Applause] cristiano ronaldo lisandro martinez sancho what's an important piece of defending [Applause] dunk alexis mcallister as he keeps the ball in anticipation of support arriving and somehow kept out by de gea [Applause] and there's the delivery not messing around with that clearance [Applause] dunk alexis mcallister [Applause] couldn't hang on to the ball [Applause] can he get one back he can he's given his team a real opportunity and momentum is with them well just look at his strength here he holds off the challenge he keeps his balance and he finds the back of the net it's a wonderful goal [Applause] [Applause] [Music] contest here rashford here's luke shaw well the attacking options appear plentiful excellent passing a very timely interception [Applause] pascal horse alexis macarista looking confident with the ball at his face it looks promising opportunity to deliver the cross [Applause] element of risk there but he's won the ball [Music] [Applause] cristiano ronaldo here's luke shaw good use of advantage in united's favor [Applause] happy to pass the ball but remaining patient united might be able to cash in sancho and forcing his opponent in the nick of time now cancer attacking possibilities here promising sequence the cross is on attending to his defensive chores [Applause] eriksen bruno fernandez has it [Applause] jaden sancho [Applause] sancho well time tackle well visionary passing well for united it's almost a case of job done not quite yet officially speaking stuart what have you made of the performance today well it's been a really good contest you have to say but overall i think they've just about deserved to be in the lead here can they now just see this going through for what will be an excellent win and a goal here for manchester united they are the big favourites now [Applause] well we won't get tired of watching this because the interplay around the box is wonderful and he makes the finish look so easy what a good goal that is 3-1 the score [Applause] dunk onto gross alexis mcallister top-class defending and a foul in the opinion of the referee now what can they do from this free-kick situation oh [Applause] here's a change for manchester united [Applause] well sadly you've got to say it all went horribly wrong for him well he backed his technique unfortunately on this occasion it let him down badly that's a poor effort another good tackle [Applause] must be a wonderful say well he reacts so quickly there that's a great save luna marcus rashford here's ronaldo rashford here's luke shaw marcus rashford [Applause] and the cross is very much on rashford and now shaw fred sancho sancho able to get a body in the way [Applause] and the referee is going to add on four added minutes to now quesado options in the center [Applause] oh brilliant goalkeeping [Applause] substitution for will switch things around personnel wise christian ericsson [Music] [Applause] can he deliver it with accuracy and they can't quite take advantage in the end [Applause] maguire and there it is the full-time whistle a victory for manchester united absolutely derek it was fairly comfortable in the end because they were tactically superior had better individuals and were always a threat going forward it was a really good performance and a good result as well well good luck to any defender trying to stop marcus rashford and they haven't had too much luck on that front stuart well he looked a top class player today every time he touched the ball he was a threat and he worked so hard for the team as well what a good display that was [Applause] End Screen - Thanks For Watching!
