Manchester United's results have been off the charts since Rubin Emolian took over the reins. Just last weekend (1), they swept aside Ewarton 4-0 at home in the Premier League, the team's most brilliant league victory in the last eight months. 39-year-old Portuguese manager reshaped the team with a 3421 formation, revitalizing the two long-awaited strikers Joshua Shukes and Rashford. During the match, Shukes even broke his 17-game goal drought, showing a strong will to stay in the team.
First-time United manager Ruben Emolian took the lead in the opening game, but his coaching ability was questioned for a while when rivals Yateswich forced a draw. However, the European boss eventually won the game and dominated the match against Eyewitnesses. In the 34th minute, Lashford's shot was intercepted by EWT's centerpiece Banff Weidi, who accidentally put the ball into the net, resulting in Fook's goal.
Just seven minutes later, Banfwedi missed again and was forced to take a footer by Amitya Road. Nandis came down like a tiger and crossed for Joshua Schukes to shoot. The Dutch international had finally contributed a goal for United since mid-August. On the changeover, Rashford and Joshua Shukes each scored a goal, both assisted by Amit Diarou.
Rashford only scored one goal in the Premier League during Tannhäuser's tenure at United, but after Emolian took over, he scored in two consecutive Premier League matches. What's even more amazing is that Joshua Shukes, who has been sitting on the bench for a long time, stood out in this game, scoring twice, proving that Emolian knows his people.
After the match, a reporter asked Emolian why he chose to use Shukes. He replied, "It's impossible to use the same lineup every game, players need time to regain their strength and also to play their characteristics against the opponent." Previously, there were rumors that United were planning to loan Joshua Shukes to Juventus next January, but this win certainly brightens his prospects of staying in the team.
