The agony of Manchester United continues, the defeats are coming down, the “devils” are playing badly, and tonight in the 19th round of the Premier League at “Old Trafford” they lost to Newcastle 2:0.
The English giant ends 2024 in 14th place and has only seven points more than Ipswich, which is in the relegation zone, and which tonight defeated Chelsea 2:0 at home.
At “Old Trafford”, both goals were scored in the early stages of the match, first Isak beat Onana, then Joelinton, and after that Tonali could have hit the net, but hit the post.
United was very bad in the first half, but even so they had a good chance to reduce the score, but Casemiro sent the ball wide of the goal at the end of the first half.
The best chance for the home team in the second half was missed by Maguire, who hit the post.
United suffered their third defeat in a row in the Premier League, failing to score in all three matches. The last triumph of Ruben Amorim’s team was in mid-December, when they beat Manchester City.
And Chelsea is definitely in a crisis, as tonight they were sensationally defeated away from Ipswich – 2:0.
Chelsea is three matches without a win, suffered two defeats in a row, so it is now in fourth place in the table and has only three points more than fifth-placed Newcastle.
And the victory for Ipswich, which is very important in the fight for survival, was brought by Delap from the penalty and Hutchinson.
Aston Villa and Brighton played to a draw – 2:2. Brighton took the lead through Adingra, and Villa turned it around thanks to goals from Watkins and Rodgers. The final result was set by Lampti.
