Defeat against Brighton, Man Utd has no chance to attend the Champions League

Entering the confrontation with Brighton, MU was suddenly cautious when actively giving up the game to the home team and playing defensively. In the first 10 minutes of the game, the Red Devils almost did not attack and let Brighton have 73% of the ball.

In the 15th minute, from a cross on the right of Brighton, Alex Telles controlled with his chest to lose the ball to the feet of Solomon March. The ball was then passed to Pascal Groß, whose quick footwork unfortunately hit Telles’ body.

The ball then bounced to the edge of the box, midfielder Moises Caicedo immediately jumped up and launched a powerful shot that sent the ball between Victor Lindelöf’s legs, before defeating David de Gea. The home team who took the lead.

In the next minutes, the home team continued to dominate the game and continuously surrounded De Gea’s goal. However, they lacked a bit of precision and luck to find the second goal. In the opposite direction, MU was completely deadlocked and had no shots on target throughout the first half.

Entering the second half, coach Rangnick launched Fred and Cavani on the field to replace Matic and Elanga to change the game. However, his plan did not work, MU conceded the second goal. 49 minutes, the MU defense forgot Trossard on the left wing, creating conditions for this midfielder to clear the ground for Cucurella to score a beautiful goal.

However, Cucurella’s goal was just the beginning of the Red Devils’ nightmare. From the 57th to the 60th minute, the guests had to go into the net to pick up the ball 2 more times thanks to the goals of Gross and Trossard.

At this point, MU has nothing to lose and rushes to attack with all his might to find an honorable goal. However, they could not do that because the Brighton defense and the goalkeeper Sanchez performed excellently.

Lost 0-4, MU is stuck in 6th place in the rankings and officially runs out of chances to win tickets to the Champions League next season. At this time, MU is 6 points behind Arsenal while only 1 match remains.
