United abuses Southampton with 10 from 2 '

The second minute of the game had not been reached and Manchester United already had it on a tray. Alex Jankewitz, who was playing his first game as a starter at Southampton, kicked McTominay at the knee that left no room for doubt: direct red and ejection. In a sigh, the red devils had the game uneven thanks to the fastest card in history in the Premier League (79 seconds), beating Tim Flowers' previous record with the Blackburn Rovers in 1995 (95 seconds).

From this move on, everything was a piece of cake for the Old Trafford team, which one after another culminated their attacks successfully. The leading role in the first half fell mainly on the two full-backs, Shaw and Wan Bissaka, who participated in almost all the goals. In the first, pass from the first and goal from the second. In the third, Southampton's own goal after a cross from Wan bissaka. In the room, Cavani's goal after a Shaw cross. Only broke the plenum in the second when they combined Rashford and Greenwood. It had not even reached the break, and even the VAR re-refereed a penalty that was about to shoot Bruno fernandes.

Solskjaer did not want to put the handbrake on in the second half despite the win. Although he removed Cavani and Shaw, he brought in Van de Beek and Martial. They did not stop the attacks, despite a goal disallowed against Southampton for offside. Then more locals arrived. First, Martial. Then McTominay. Later, Bruno Fernandes from penalty, another, also reviewed by the VAR, that ended with the controversial expulsion of Bednarek after a foul on Martial. Later, another from Martial, also a pass from Wan Bissaka. And finally Daniel James, on the last play of the game, with the assistance of Bruno.

An overwhelming 9-0, unanswered, identical to that received by Southampton a little over a year ago against Leicester (0-9), at which point his reaction in the table began, but above all a 9-0 that allows the Red Devils to tie on points for the lead with City, despite having played two more games.

Sheffield cling to salvation and Newcastle approach relegation

The Sheffield United he does not lose hope of escaping relegation and, although he remains at the bottom, he achieved an important victory against the West Bromwich Albion (2-1).

The 'Blades' came back from Matt Phillips' initial goal, which pushed a reject in the small area. Two goals in the second half that put them fully in the fight for not relegation.

In a tangled play inside the area Jayden Bogle managed to get a shot that slipped next to West Brom's goalpost, while the winning goal was made by the team legend Billy sharp 20 minutes from the end.

Those of Chris Wilder they are still bottoms, with 11 points, one less than the West brom and ten from salvation.
