.ManUtd beat WatfordFC at Old Trafford as OleTakesTheWheel | IOLsport
MANCHESTER – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s reign as permanent Manchester United manager began on a victorious note with a 2-1 victory over Watford on Saturday to move into fourth spot in the Premier League.
But it was a good reminder, if one was needed for the new permanent manager, that there is plenty of hard work ahead if Solskjaer wants to make United contenders for the title again. But it was the visitors who started the brighter as Doucoure dragged a shot wide from a promising position while David de Gea had to claw away a header from Troy Deeney.
Deeney failed to get his pass beyond Luke Shaw and the left-back sped forward, before looking up and playing a perfect ball into the space behind the defence for Rashford to sprint onto and coolly finish past the onrushing Ben Foster. Rashford was at the heart of their attacking play as he rounded Foster but from a tight angle could not find a team-mate.
