Manchester United were two goals behind in the opening minutes against Nottingham Forest, but Christian Eriksen has given the Reds a lifeline with his tap-in on the 17th minute.
It goes without saying that it was a dreadful start for United. Two quick-fire sloppy goals from questionable goalkeeping and defending.
This didn’t bode well for the rest of the match as Forest held a two-goal lead.
However, United managed to calm down and got themselves together before Marcus Rashford got into the box before assisting Christian Eriksen.
It was a classy finish from the Dane, who hit home from close range to pull one back for United to make it 2-1. Now there’s an opportunity for us to complete a comeback.
