Manchester United made two pieces of history today as they beat Norwich City 3-1 at Carrow Road.
Manchester United came away from Carrow Road in Norfolk with all three points after an impressive 3-1 victory.
First, Scott McTominay opened the scoring in the first half to make it 2000 Premier League goals for Manchester United – the first team to reach this incredible milestone. The Red Devils went on to score two more through Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial to make it 3-1 and achieve one of their most impressive away performances in some time.
Remarkably, however, both Rashford and Martial also missed penalties in this game – the first time two players on the same team have both scored and missed penalties for their side in a single Premier League game.
That is not necessarily a record United will be thrilled to hold, with their team really struggling to score from the spot so far this season. While the goal scorers may have taken the plaudits, one defender certainly made his presence felt too.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has impressed since joining the Red Devils from Crystal Palace in the summer transfer window, and made himself a hero once again during the Premier League clash with Norwich City.
Statistics have shown that the right back managed to win a total of 11 tackles against the Canaries, which is the most by any player in this season.
