Man Utd win big in Alexis Sanchez's debut
"Number 7" recently had an assist to help Man Utd beat Yeovil Town 4-0 in the FA Cup.
Goals: Rashford 41', Herrera 61', Lingard 89', Lukaku 90'+3
Playing on the left wing of Man Utd's attack, Sanchez initiated many of the attacks. In the 41st minute, from Sanchez's pass, Rashford took advantage of the hesitation of Yeovil's defense to score the opening goal. In the 61st minute, the Chilean star directly set up the game by passing into the penalty area for Herrera to shoot diagonally to double the gap.
In addition to important passes, Sanchez also showed his dribbling ability. The quick integration of the new "number 7" made the Man Utd fans present on the field somewhat satisfied.

After 72 minutes of effective play, Sanchez was replaced by Jesse Lingard. It was Lingard who made it 3-0 with a diagonal shot in the middle of a circle of five opponents in the 89th minute.
Another substitute, Romelu Lukaku, also scored for Man Utd, with the Belgian striker tapping home in the third minute of stoppage time to seal a 4-0 win.
Manchester United booked their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with a thumping win at third-tier Yeovil. Tottenham will play Newport, Liverpool face West Brom and Manchester City travel to Cardiff.
