Manchester United Comeback Victory Report and Highlights: Late Goals Seal Win Over Sheffield United

Manchester United secured a crucial 4-2 victory over bottom side Sheffield United at Old Trafford, with late goals from Bruno Fernandes and Rasmus Hojlund sealing the win. The Red Devils had to come from behind twice in a chaotic match that saw them end a four-game winless streak in the Premier League.

The Blades took a surprise lead in the 35th minute after a mistake from Man Utd goalkeeper Andre Onana allowed Jayden Bogle to score. However, Harry Maguire equalized shortly before half-time, only for Ben Brereton Diaz to put Sheffield United back in front early in the second half.

But Fernandes stepped up for Man Utd, equalizing from the penalty spot before scoring a stunning long-range strike to give his team the lead. The Portuguese midfielder then set up Hojlund to secure the victory and lift Man Utd to sixth in the table, boosting their hopes of European qualification.

Manager Erik ten Hag praised his team’s attacking play but highlighted the two goals conceded as unacceptable giveaways. Meanwhile, Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder lamented his team’s inability to hold onto a lead and criticized the penalty decision that led to Man Utd’s equalizer.

The win marked a milestone for Harry Maguire, whose goal was the 1,085th Premier League goal of the season, the most in a 20-team campaign in the competition’s history. Man Utd will now look ahead to a crucial clash with Burnley, while Sheffield United’s relegation could be confirmed when they face Newcastle.

Overall, it was a dramatic and entertaining match at Old Trafford, with Man Utd showing resilience to secure a much-needed victory in their quest for European qualification.
