Norwich 1-2 United: 5 Things We Learnt As United Knocked Out Norwich.

Manchester United somehow left their 'blender' on their way to Carrow Road and were this forced to use a 'grinding stone' to grind out a slim 2-1 victory to progress to the semi-finals of the FA cup. Here are 5 things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the 'grinding stone' victory: 1. IGHA-GOAL CARRY GO! Naija's own Odion Igha-goal was once again the star man of the day. He continued his tradition of scoring in every game he starts with another well taken goal tonight. He also was very instrumental to the making of the winning goal with a superb flick. We are proud of him and all we can say is "ooin, you are doing well!!". 2. OFF DAY Our Portuguese magician Bruno 'Oliseh' Fernandes appeared to have been off duty today. He had his usual ginger, but no magic worked today. Its was as though Norwich came to him to say "Oga, everyday is not Christmas". He probably needs some rest especially after this marathon game. 3. S

To add some 'roundabout to the peppersoup', he surpassed his best ever goal tally of 17 goals with his 19th goal of the season after the hatrick.

Tottenham 1-1 United: 5 Things We Learnt As A Draw Settled The Matter.

Manchester United resumed post-lockdown duties with a clash against Tottenham Hotspur at their new stadium. Both teams had to share one point each at the end of 90 minutes. Here are the five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the post-lockdown clash: 1. BRUNO 'OLISEH' FERNANDES . The Portuguese doesnt fail to make the headlines! Bruno picked up from the exact spot he left off before the lockdown. He was everywhere, passing, tackling and thoroughly bossing the midfield. In 90 minutes, he had 90 touches, created 2 chances and scored a goal. Kudos also to Fred and McTominay for the midfield collabo with him. 2. A LIQUID METAL? Bergwijn's goal for Tottenham was venomous. He played it like he had a 'beef' with De Gea. The amazing thing was that the shot was straight at De Gea but it somehow passed through his gloves. As someone in Naija would say, "It  was a vely Danjelous shot". 3. WELCOME POGBA! Hate him or love him, Paul

Solskjaer Reveals New Goalkeeper Choice for United.

Manchester United manager, Ole 'Ugonna' Solskjaer has tipped United academy graduate, Dean Henderson to become Manchester United and England's commander-in-chief of goal post affairs. Henderson has spent his last two seasons on loan as Sheffield United's number 1 shotstopper, guiding his team to promotion and further impressing in his first season in the EPL top flight.
