2) A poor first-half
Trending
The first-half had the very feeling of both teams going through the motions with nothing realistic to play for. Manchester United, as usual, were dominant on the ball without managing to produce the finishing touch. They kept trying the same tactic of switching play to either side of the wing to test the two fullbacks but Steve Cook and Charlie Daniels looked up to the task.
Bournemouth barely had the ball and had a shot blocked but that was that. Most of them were on post-season holiday mood having already secured their league status a few weeks ago. It needed some teamwork of the highest quality by the home side to breach the Cherries defence in the 42nd minute and wake up a sparse Old Trafford crowd.
