Match scinario
With the starting whistle, as expected Barcelona started pressing on Manchester united players, but then a quarter of an hour later, Manchester United entered the match, and started playing very well, after that we watched a 50/50 match between the two teams until the end of the first half.
The second half had different story from the first one, because Marcos Alonso scored a head goal in the 55th minute after a perfect corner kick from Raphinha, few minutes later Marcus rashford scored the tie goal.
| Alonso's head was the solution for barca |
In this period, Barcelona lost the possession and the team couldn't keep up with the rhythm of Manchester United team what made them receive another goal after only 7 minutes from the first one.
Marcus rashford got the balls from the corner kick, then dribbled Jordi Alba and send a sneaky cross ball to hit in Jules Koundé and went to Barcelona goal, to turn the score into 2-1 Manchester United.
| rashford played one of his best matches |
At that point the match seemed to go to Manchester United, because Barcelona lost the control totally especially after the injury of pedri, but Raphinha has another opinion, because after a perfect shoot he scored a goal for Barcelona to bring the game back to the beginning.
The rest of the match was a waste of time because nothing happend, waiting for the second match that's going to be played in Old Trafford in Manchester.
