Manchester United are in action again tonight in the first post-Ole Gunnar Solskjaer game, with Michael Carrick leading the side against Villarreal in the Champions League.
Victory over Villarreal would put United on their way to Champions League qualification and after a sombre first half, which ended 1-0, United emerged as a different side after the interval
Cristiano Ronaldo gave Carrick’s side the lead with roughly 20 minutes remaining on the clock, capitalising on an error from the Villarreal backline.

It looked like the game would end 1-0 but Jadon Sancho, who has been struggling since his move from Borussia Dortmund, ended his early-season woes with an incredible strike in the closing moments, as seen above.
That will do Sancho the world of good as he looks to build on this goal in the coming weeks. The blinding strike against Unai Emery’s side is his first goal since completing his big-money switch last summer.
