Several minutes of overtime saved Cristiano Ronaldo’s victory at Old Trafford. Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s men in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Solskjær has recently again had to feel the pressure to have to deliver, and Wednesday’s victory was much needed for a Norwegian who had lost the two previous matches in the Premier League. – The difference between a draw and a win is heaven or hell. This provides peace for Solskjær. It’s much harder to argue against success, said Erik Thorstvedt in TV 2 studio.

– Expectation of success

Football Writer in The Guardian, Jonathan Wilson, has in a lengre article described why he thinks Wednesday’s victory was a small warning for Manchester United. – How much time can love buy you? That Manchester United supporters want Ole Gunnar Solskjær to succeed is indisputable. Not only did he score crucial goals, he legitimized a golden era. Who does not want a returning hero to lead the club back to the top again ?, he asks himself . – But hopeful thoughts will not organize a midfield, he continues.

Wednesday’s victory was a very small but important step on the way for Solskjær’s opportunity to take his first trophy as United manager.

– There is now an expectation of success, but it seems to be further away than ever, Wilson believes. Problem For a long time, one of the topics of discussion has been which midfielders Solskjær will put his trust in. With players like Paul Pogba, Bruno Fernandes, Donny van de Beek, Fred, Scott McTominay and Nemanja Matic, the Norwegian manager has a luxury problem.

But without the two midfielders, the winning percentage is 52% . The statistics Wilson refers to also show that they score significantly fewer goals per game (1.73) and concede significantly more goals (1.15) without the two together in the middle. Against Villarreal, the Red Devils were occasionally ravaged, but as so often before, United secured the victory shortly before the end. Wilson thinks it’s only a matter of time before the United team is punished more severely. Bone-tough program On Saturday, Everton awaits at home for Manchester United in the Premier League.

The team is in 4th place, only one point behind league leader Liverpool, but has so far had a simpler match program than the other title rivals. After the Everton match, four tough settlements await. Then Solskjær meets Leicester, Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City in a row.
