Today it was good news at Old Trafford stadium for Manchester United to secure a win of 2-1 against Chelsea.

After five minutes of the game, Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez got a straight red card after tackling Bryan Mbeumo. Bruno Fernandes quickly put United ahead with his 100th goal for the club in all competitions in his 200th Premier League appearance.

Casemiro doubled United’s lead before the Brazil midfielder was dismissed for a second booking in first-half stoppage time. Trevoh Chalobah’s late reply for Chelsea set up a tense finale, but United held on for just their second win in six matches in all competitions this term.

Manchester United have moved from the 15th position to the 9th position of the Premier League table to give Ruben Amorim some breathing space.

After presiding over United’s lowest top-flight finish since 1973-74 and a limp Europa League final loss to Tottenham last term, Amorim spent big in the summer to overhaul his moribund team. But United suffered an embarrassing League Cup exit at fourth-tier Grimsby in August before last weekend’s 3-0 loss at Manchester City underlined the vast gulf to their rivals.

Former Sporting Lisbon boss Amorim, who replaced the sacked Erik ten Hag in November, insists he retains the backing of co-owner Jim Ratcliffe after speaking to the British billionaire at the club’s training ground on Thursday.

In conclusion, this win will boost Manchester United players to concentrate on the next game to secure another win.
