Man Utd entered the reception of a team that had not lost since the beginning of this season with a certain cautious attitude, even though they were playing at home.
Being cautious but playing proactively is what coach Solskjaer’s students showed in this match.
The intentional disturbance in the midfield with the presence of both Pogba and Van de Beek has given MU an extremely new face.

Mason Greewood also started again after having to appear on the bench in recent matches.
With a score of 1-0 after the end of the first 45 minutes, not many people thought of the scenario of Leipzig leaving with such a `white-backed` situation.

Realizing that the opponent was gradually putting pressure on his team, coach Solskjaer sent in Rashford, McTominay and Bruno Fernandes to counter the opponent’s proactive attacks.
Bruno Fernandes helped Rashford score his first goal in this match with a great pass from home.
