Man United vs Southampton

Manchester United passed its first test following last week's lopsided loss to Liverpool, and now the Red Devils welcome Southampton to Old Trafford.

The Senegal star is inching closer to his move to Bayern Munich as he is in Bavaria for his medical. With Sadio Mane looking to be on his way out and question marks over the future of Mohamed Salah, Klopp may need to strengthen this attack this summer. Per the report, Liverpool will pay Benfica a guaranteed $84 million and could pay up to another $21 million in add-ons. Liverpool don’t mess around once they identify a player they want to sign and Nunez ticks all of the boxes Jurgen Klopp wants from a striker. This is a surprising move by Liverpool but it slots in superbly with their recruitment model and Gakpo seems to be the kind of player who is ready to break out in a big way and score 20 plus goals a season in the Premier League. Takumi Minamino’s time at Anfield appears to be over after Liverpool and Monaco reportedly agreed a transfer fee for the 27-year-old Japan international. I have got more to learn and the time to do that. The expansion side have had a great start to life in MLS and adding a player of Firmino’s quality would be a major coup and give them a huge boost but you would think a huge number of MLS sides would be interested in signing Firmino. In my eyes, probably one of the best — if not the best — clubs in the world at the minute. It certainly looks like Klopp bet on a handful of mainstays to hold off Father Time for one more season and Father Time was like, “Nah.” And being asked about transfers by journalists might be annoying, but it sure isn’t the worst job on Earth, is it? He’s not on the same level as Barella in ball movement but he’s very good at creating shots and is a harder tackler and defensive presence than Barella. You have to think he would score plenty of goals and be a star man in STL and there is a strong connection with the new MLS side as their current sporting director Lutz Pfannenstiel was with Firmino in Germany at Hoffenheim.

Antony wins a free-kick in a dangerous position just outside the 18-yard box, and with the ball whipped in by Bruno Fernandes perfectly to the far post, Raphael Varane gets on it from point-blank range, but Gavin Bazunu makes a sensational save off his chest! Yet the Man United full-back is on hand to boot it off the goal mouth at the last possible moment! The Red Devils play on the break, and Antony does very well to find Luke Shaw at the far post on a great switch of play. Lisandro Martinez does well to recover enough to marshal the Southampton forward away from goal, and it gives David de Gea enough of an angle to make a great save! Bruno Fernandes delivers a curler from the top of the penalty area, and it looked for all the world it would go in, even after Gavin Bazunu got down low to get his fingertips to the ball. Southampton generate a great attacking move but it comes up just short of a good effort on goal, and immediately Jadon Sancho carries it forward on the counter. 86th min: The home fans are in full voice as United make a push in the final five minutes of regulation!

Man United will have been hoping to beat last-place Southampton, but Casemiro's red card changed the game as both sides settled for a draw.

In 37 competitive matches with Man United across all competitions, he equals his total amount of red cards in his entire Real Madrid career. - Casemiro: Second red card with Man United (first since Feb.

Under manager Erik ten Hag, United have produced some exciting attacking football, but Sunday was all about grit and determination.

United looked to have finally broken the deadlock when Shaw managed to get the better of the Southampton defence, and found Bruno Fernandes in a good amount of space. United tried to find the winner in the closing minutes. Kyle Walker-Peters got the better of Marcus Rashford on the right wing, made his way into the area and whipped a cross into the middle. Moments later, Luke Shaw was able to whip in a wonderful cross into the penalty area, but it went over the head of Wout Weghorst and Antony was unable to get a clean enough connection to have a shot on target. In response, the Saints came forward to create their best opportunity of the half. Shrugging off the defender, the in-form forward tried to tuck the ball into the far corner, but his shot was saved by Gavin Bazunu.

A look at how Twitter reacted to Casemiro's sending off for Manchester United against Southampton in the Premier League.

Casemiro followed in the footsteps of another revered United centre-back with his second red card of the season. In fact, across 336 appearances for Real Madrid, Casemiro was shown just two red cards, both of which were awarded after a second booking. Oddly, they didn't point out that the midfielder's studs soon found their way into Alcaraz's leg. Unsurprisingly, a large number of United's online fanbase weren't particularly enamoured with the decision either. [Casemiro](https://www.90min.com/players/casemiro) in for an early bath. However, the Brazilian provided a rare negative to his Manchester United tenure on Sunday with a straight red card against

Manchester United passed its first test following last week's lopsided loss to Liverpool, and now the Red Devils welcome Southampton to Old Trafford.

Alan Shearer put up 47 over 42, while Thierry Henry holds the 38-game record with 44. He’s played in 23 of Man City’s 24 games, scoring 26 goals. And even though Haaland is currently overperforming his expected goals total, it’s clear that projecting him for the Premier League record is rather realistic. Below is the full schedule, as you can watch all 380 games across our NBC platforms. Who will be the surprise package? Villa exits the game in 11th with 35 points. Wolves have been led this season by midfielder Ruben Neves, goalkeeper Jose Sa, and center back Max Kilman, the only three players to start more than 20 PL matches for the side. The Magpies are on a 315-minute goalless stretch across all competitions. Fernandes does not fancy coming out of the lineup and will like his chances of cutting open Southampton’s back line. Five clearances, nine recoveries, and a pair of created chances. Manchester United’s flickering and improbable hopes of a Premier League title run look extinguished with the surprise draw at Old Trafford. It’s four-straight points for Saints, who were still buzzing after a 1-0 win over old nemesis Leicester City and now hold 22 points.
