MU sets a series of bad records

Returning to the Premier League after the defeat in the Champions League, MU needed a win to continue to nurture hopes in the Top 4. However, the dark days continued at MU when they were crushed 4-0 away by Everton.

Including the four goals conceded against Everton, MU has conceded 48 goals in the Premier League since the beginning of the season. This is the first time in history that MU has conceded so many goals since the "record" of 45 goals was set in the 1999/00 and 2001/02 seasons under Sir Alex. MU has also conceded in 11 consecutive matches. This is the worst performance of the Old Trafford team since 1998.

The defeat at Goodison Park was United's fifth consecutive away defeat in all competitions. Previously, United had lost to Arsenal, Wolves (1 in the FA Cup and 1 in the Premier League) and Barcelona. This is the first time in history since 1986 that United have lost five consecutive away games.

Solskjaer apologizes to MU fans

After the 0-4 defeat at Everton in round 35, the former Norwegian player had to apologize to the Red Devils fans: "The performance in this match was not worthy of the name MU. The whole team and I can only apologize to the fans" - Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said sadly.

According to the MU captain, this defeat is inexcusable when Everton dominated in every aspect. Meanwhile, the Old Trafford team will have a lot of work to do to improve themselves after this defeat.

“We were completely beaten in this game. You always want to see a team come out and express themselves, but today it was not like that. We conceded some unfortunate goals and had a lot of clumsy situations,” said coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Mbappe scores hat-trick, PSG wins championship 5 rounds early

Mbappe refused to celebrate his goal, as a way to show respect for Monaco - the team he grew up with and won the championship with in the 2016-2017 season.

Early this morning (April 22), Kylian Mbappe's hat-trick helped PSG beat Monaco 3-1 in the match that marked Neymar's return from injury. This victory was the perfect gift to celebrate the early Ligue 1 championship that PSG had received earlier thanks to Lille's stumble.

Entering round 33 of Ligue 1, PSG has 81 points, 17 points more than the second-placed team Lille. Coach Thomas Tuchel and his team only need to win 1 more point in the match against Monaco to be crowned champions. However, this match has not yet taken place, PSG has been crowned champions of Ligue 1 because in the early match, Lille was held to a 0-0 draw by Toulouse. Since there are only 5 rounds left in the season, even if they win all the remaining matches, Lille can only get a maximum of 80 points, 1 point less than PSG's current score.
