ATHLETIC CLUB MADE 406 PASSES, WITH AN 81% PASS ACCURACY LAST NIGHT, AND HAD 11 SHOTS, WITH 1 ON TARGET, WHICH SUCCESSFULLY REACHED-THE-BACK-OF-THE-NET AT 31 MINS., FROM MIKEL JAUREGIZAR, (WHICH WAS THE ONLY GOAL OF THE FIRST-HALF) SO IT MUST HAVE BEEN ‘SQUEEKY-BUM-TIME’ FOR MAN UNITED AT HALF-TIME! BUT RUBEN AMORIM MUST HAVE GIVEN HIS SQUAD EXTRA ORANGE SLICES BECAUSE THEY WERE CERTAINLY ENERGETIC IN THE 2ND-HALF, SCORING 4 GOALS IN THE SPACE OF 19 MINS!! FIRSTLY, MASON MOUNT SCORED WHAT WAS TO BE THE FIRST GOAL OF A BRILLIANT BRACE, WITH A STUNNER AT 72 MINS., AND THEN CASEMIRO SMASHED THE BALL INTO-THE-BACK-OF-THE-NET AT 79 MINS., WITH RASMUS HOJLUND FOLLOWING ON WITH ANOTHER CRACKER AT 85 MINS., AND WITH MASON MOUNT FINISHING OFF WITH THE MOST MAGNIFICENT GOAL IN EXTRA TIME AT 90+1 MIN., (MASON HAS WORKED HARD TO GET BACK INTO PEAK PHYSICAL HEALTH AFTER RECENT INJURIES), IT JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT HARD WORK AND TENACITY CAN SUR’MOUNT’ ANY PROBLEMS! MAN UNITED WON THE MATCH 4 – 1 (7 – 1 ON AGGREGATE), AND WILL NOW PLAY TOTTENHAM IN AN ALL-ENGLISH EUROPA LEAGUE FINAL IN BILBAO ON 21ST MAY 2025 AT 20.00 P.M!
