Manchester United 0-1 West Brom: 5 Talking Points

3) Determined West Brom finally get their reward

West Brom recorded their first Premier League win since January

West Brom’s 1-0 win over Man United may come as a shock to many, but the fact is that it was no fluke. The Baggies knew exactly what they were doing and bettered the Red Devils in virtually every department.

For a side that sits bottom of the Premier League table and hasn’t won a league game since January, no one gave them a dog’s chance at Old Trafford. However, West Brom, irrespective of the poor string of results, have been pushing themselves really hard in recent weeks and the win over United is reward for their hard work.

The Baggies were unfortunate to have drawn 1-1 with Swansea City last week after taking an early lead. However, lady luck finally smiled at them at Old Trafford when they needed it most.

The win over United may still not be enough to see them beat the drop, but if they can keep up this sort of determination then the race for survival would get much more intense as the season gets to a close.
