Slight Differences Manchester United As Comeback King in the Solskjaer Era

DBasia.news – Manchester United’s reputation as the king of comeback has long been attached to world football fans. However, a slightly different phenomenon occurred this season.

When handled by Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United often made dramatic comebacks. One of the most memorable of course in the 1998-1999 Champions League final.

At that moment, Manchester United won the title despite being 0-1 behind until normal time ended. The reason, they scored two goals in injury time.

The nickname of the comeback king began to be carried by Manchester United afterwards. Moreover, they often show similar actions at other moments.

Solskjaer is one of the historical actors from the comeback moment in the 1998-1999 Champions League final. He scored the winner despite coming on as a substitute.

After being appointed to handle Manchester United, Solskjaer seemed to want to transmit that mentality. It is also very visible this season.

Manchester United is not only worthy of being the king of the comeback. However, Solskjaer’s team regularly does it at home to opponents.

Of the six away matches from the 2020-2021 Premier League, Manchester United wiped out all of them with a win. Uniquely, all of this was achieved through a comeback.

Manchester United always lag behind when they travel to Brighton, Newcastle United, Everton, Southampton, West Ham and Sheffield United. But Bruno Fernandes and friends were able to get up and reverse the position.

This slick record is inversely proportional to Manchester United’s performance at home games. Of the six matches, they have won only once and swallowed three defeats and two draws.

If you want to compete in the title race, Manchester United will have to start spreading their away form at home. It’s time for the comeback king to do his craft at his own home, Theater of Dreams.
