A thrilling game at Stamford Bridge saw Manchester United and Chelsea share the spoils. The Blues seemed headed for yet another chance win against United, until two 'CHIVITAstic' finishes from Martial turned the game in United's favour.


Here are Five(5) things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the clash.

1. ANTHONY 'IKECHUKWU' MARTIAL TO THE RESCUE
What a performance on the biggest stage. The French winger scored two 'fearfully and wonderfully' made goals to put United in the lead after going behind to a Chelsea goal. He has now scored 3 goals and assisted 1 in his last 3 starts for United.


Another day at the office, proving yet again why he's United's best option on the left. At this point, Alexis Sanchez should either be played on the right wing, or RIGHT BENCH.




2. FIRST HALF 'KPALAVA'
Another day, another horrible first half performance from the Red Devils. The Red Devils started the match with their 'anywhere-bele-face' football as usual, …

Manchester United welcomed Newcastle to Old Trafford amidst 'amebo' gist up and down pointing at José Mourinho's sack.

2 Newcastle goals in 10 minutes  felt like it was over for United. A Fergie-like 2nd half revival saw United reply with 3 goals to end the tie at 3-2.


Here are five(5) things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the clash.

1. UNITED PLAYERS ARE NOT ON STRIKE
Watching the attitude of the players today, especially in the 2nd half, it was clear that the players had followed the footsteps of the 'NLC' and suspended their rumoured strike, to put in a 2nd half performance showing passion and grit.

2. PAUL 'IKENNA' POGBA IS A PROFESSIONAL
Despite being the most criticised at United at the moment, and the only one who's rift with the boss is no longer a rumour, the Frenchman still stood tall today with a world class performance at the heart of United's midfield.


To add 'goat meat to his stew', the French maestro laid on a FANTA-bulous backheel…

Manchester United kicked off the international champions cup competition as part of pre-season preparations.


It ended 1-1 at full time and went into penalties. It turned out to be a goal harvest as 26 shots were taken by both teams and the scoreline ended 9-8 in favour of Manchester United.

Watch the highlights below:


Let's have your thoughts about this game.

As part of the pre-season preparations, Mourinho's Manchester United faced ex-midfield 'Bakassi boy' Guttuso's AC Milan in the International champions cup competition.


The match started out with both teams playing like it was a world cup final. Within 10 minutes, both sides had already missed good chances with Manchester United's new goalkeeper signing, Lee Grant making a great save.
In the 12th minute, 'Awoof' signing Alexis 'Balogun' Sanchez picked a delightful flick from Mata and before eyes opened and closed, the ball was dancing 'One-corner' in the net.

While the celebration of the goal was going on, an equaliser came from Jesùs Fernandez. The reply was so fast that many fans thought it was the replay of Alexis's goal. 
It was hoped that the match was going to be a harvest of goals but that did not happen as no extra goal was scored until the end of 90 minutes. 

The game went into penalty shoot-out and that was when the harvest beg…

Before we finally shift our focus to the return of club football, before the tension of another fast and furious season kicks in, here are five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from United's representatives in the Russia 2018 World Cup.

1. DE GEA'S MEMORY CARD FULL
In an unfortunate turn of events, David 'Osinachi' De Gea ruined his chances of being named Goalkeeper of the Year with his performances for Spain at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

The 'Igwe' of goalkeepers, English Premier League chapter faced 12 shots(including penalties) at the World Cup and saved just 1.


Could it be that he saved too much shots for Manchester United during the past season?
Could it be that his memory card for saving shots is full?



Whatever be the case, we wish him safe journey back to Manchester and we hope he has formatted that memory card in preparation for the new season.
Still our number one!

2. POGBA DESERVES SOME ACCOLADES
