It was a glorious night at Turin, as Manchester United in a typical Naija fashion, 'put pepper into Juventus eye'. For the second consecutive game, United snatched victory in Fergie-time; Say hello to the new Comeback kings!!


Here are five(5) things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from this super comeback:


1. DE GEA VS RONALDO
Having scored a hatrick against our own 'Osinachi' De Gea at the world cup, CR-7 did it again with a fantastic volley. It was indeed a beauty.




The most interesting part of the goal was De Gea's reaction. He looked at Ronaldo and looked at the ball inside his net and seemed to say 'Na lie!'.....Well, thank God De Gea had the last laugh.

2. ANOTHER JUAN-TASTIC FREE KICK.
For the 10th time in his career, Juan 'Bankole' Mata scored a 'Hossana' free-kick. It was beautiful seeing the ball dancing 'One-corner dance' inside the Juventus goal.


Juan Mata seems to have oiled his free-kick boots and at this rate, if United have a f…

Chelsea's assistant coach Marco Ianni has been fined £6000 for his 'over-sabi' (exuberant) celebration of Ross Barkley's last minute equalizer for Chelsea two weeks ago.

The 'gori-makpa'(bald-headed) coach jumped in front of Mourinho in wild celebration after the goal and immediately almost got beaten by a furious Josè Mourinho.

He was lucky that stewards were quick to hold him back, otherwise, the football match would have been converted to a royal rumble!
Thankfully, despite Mourinho's reaction, the English FA ruled that the conduct of Coach Ianni was inappropriate and was therefore fined £6000!! 


We hope the coach has learnt a lesson and will learn to obey the popular Naija saying; "Dey your lane".




GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED.

It was another below-par performance by Manchester United as they hosted a CR7-led Juventus at Old Trafford.


Here are 5 matters arising from the defeat:

1. TOO MUCH RESPECT
From the 1st whistle, one thing was crystal clear: Manchester United kept prostrating at the feet of Juventus like the Yoruba tribe of Naija greeting their 'Kabiyesi'(King).


There was too much caution in the play, making the Juventus players so relaxed. From the 75th minute when caution was thrown away, Juventus started making mistakes. If this was started early,........

2. PUNISHED FOR SLOW START
In recent matches, United have had to come from behind to grind out results due to consistent slow starts.




Against Juventus, United started badly again, with the usual 'Anywhere-belè-face' football which led to the goal by Dybala.
Sadly, there was no chance for recovery.


3. ROMELU 'TIMAYA' LUKAKU 
United's 'Striker-in-chief' has failed to find the back of the net in recent games. More worry…

The team sheets are out. Check out the starting XI José Mourinho has chosen to take on the Ronaldo-led Juventus.

GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED.

Manchester United will take on Juventus in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night, in a battle which could would see the winner become the 'Oga at the top' of the group going into further proceedings.



The Red Devils and the Biaconneri come into the match having drawn their matches at the weekend to Chelsea and Genoa respectively.
In line with customs and traditions, José 'Uchenna' Mourinho addressed the media where he gave the latest team news for the clash.
According to the boss, Manchester United will be without Alexis Sanchez, who was absent from an open training session on Monday along with Phil Jones, Diogo Dalot, Scott McTominay, and Maroanne Fellaini.



In the press conference, the Portuguese manager told the press, "The players you saw are the ones who are available. Nothing to hide. Alexis is out".
With this in mind, here's how we expect the boss to line up his team.

OPINION POLL Can this attack open up the ever solid Juventus defence? Let'…

Previous clashes: Total - 8; Man Utd wins - 2, Valencia wins - 1, Draws - 5
DID YOU KNOW?
1. Valencia are on their worst ever streak in the Champions League, losing their last four matches. Can we trust 'Amaka' United to make it five losses in a row?
2. José Mourinho has never lost to Valencia in his 10 career matches against them, W6 D4. We might have already shamefully written off the league, but please sir don't mess this one up.

Manchester United welcomed Sevilla to Old Trafford for one of the most crucial games of the season thus far, with high hopes of progressing.

However, Two goals in 5minutes from Ben Yedder was more than enough to end the Champions League dream at The Theatre of Dreams.

Here are five matters arising from this unceremonious exit:

1.....AND FELLAINI RETURNED

José Mourinho's adopted son and panic button 'Oga' Fela, who had been out for almost 3 months returned and was thrown in straight into the starting XI .

It was painful to see the boss do this. A Matic - Fellaini 'collabo' against a fast, free flowing side like Sevilla? That was asking a Benz 4-Matic to race against a 'Keke-na-pep' (tricycle).

2. WHY CHANGE A WINNING TEAM? WHY?

Why José Mourinho decided to do what we call in Naija 'Try ya luck'  on a crucial night like this remains a mystery.

A consistent team had just won 3 straight games with good displays in a new 4-3-3 formation. Why change a winn…

The team sheets are out. The starting XI sees José make two changes from the side that beat Liverpool at the weekend.



We hope this José 'Uchenna' Mourinho's 'try-your-luck' midfield pairing hasn't destroyed our chances for qualification to the next round.

Stay tuned to ManUtdNaijaFM for post match analysis.

GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED...OLUWA IS INVOLVED.

Manchester United are set to take on Sevilla in a high stakes clash tonight, with one of the teams set to be knocked out of the UEFA Champions League 2017/2018 campaign.

The Red Devils came off the first leg with a risky goalless draw, which could turn out destructive for United if the match ends in a draw with goals from both sides.

In line with customs and traditions, José 'Uchenna' Mourinho held a pre-match press conference where updated the press on the latest team news and injury updates.

According to the boss, United are set to welcome back Anthony 'Ikechukwu' Martial to the squad, as he has recovered fully from the injury which kept him out of United's win against Liverpool. The French dazzler was pictured training on Monday alongside Pa Zlatan 'Ekwueme' Ibrahimovic, who continues to build up his fitness ahead of a return to first team action.


It remains to be seen whether Paul 'Ikenna' Pogba will be present in the squad, as he wasn't pi…

Kick-off: 7.45 GMT (8.45pm Naija time).

Venue: Old Trafford

Competition: UEFA Champions League (2nd leg, Round of 16)

Last time we met: A 0-0 draw which saw David 'Osinachi' De Gea steal the headlines yet again for another stellar performance in United's goal.


To add groundnut to his 'garri', he was also voted UEFA Champions League Player Of The Week as a result.

DID YOU KNOW?
1. Sevilla have never won a game on English soil (D1 L3)...(May that soil remain infertile for them).

2. Since 2011, Manchester United have only won 1 of their last 8 Champions League knockout games...(Keep calm, José 'Uchenna' Mourinho is here).

3. 70% of the away side…

The first ever competitive meeting between Manchester United and Sevilla ended in a bore draw, with United being somewhat at the losing end. It was another 'black and white TV' display from José's team.


Here are five things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the clash:

Manchester United are set to resume their UEFA Champions League campaign with a trip to Spain, where they will take on Spanish outfit Sevilla for their round of 16 clash.

A thrilling game at Old Trafford saw Manchester United escort CSKA Moscow out of the UEFA champions league. The Russians had some hope after their opening goal,  however two quick goals as close as 'Guguru & Ekpa' turned the game in United's favour.


Here are 5 things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from today's clash:

Following a 'sugar-cane' 1-3 victory against Arsene 'Mugabe' Wenger's gunners on Saturday, Manchester United will welcome their last European visitors, CSKA Moscow in the final group stage clash of the 2017/2018 Champions league campaign.

Here's all you need to know about this clash.

'Tuesday Night Raw' at Old Trafford ended with a pin-fall victory for Manchester United.
These are the five things ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the game:


1. MOURINHO HAD AN EYE ON CHELSEA
With United set to play Chelsea over the weekend, José 'Uchenna' Mourinho made wholesale changes to the  squad that beat Tottenham in order to rest some key players.


One notable absentee was Ander 'Akinbode' Herrera who may be preparing for another 'Eden-Hazard-Chewing-Gum" role on Saturday.

2. A GAME OF TWO HALVES
United started the 1st half very poorly. It appeared they didn't hear the whistle and thought they were still in the warm up session. They made Benfica look like Barcelona in their glory days of Tiki-Taka.




The 2nd half however saw a great change in the attitude and play when it appeared Benfica '1(ted)-2' do us a 'Huddersfield'.

3. MARTIAL IS A BAG OF TRICKS
Anthony 'Ikechukwu' Martial once again made a mockery of Benfica's defenc…

The team sheets are out. Check out the XI Jose 'Uchenna' Mourinho has lined up to seal Manchester United's passage into the knock out stages of the UEFA Champions League.
