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 was the one who initiated many 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 when he passed into the penalty area for Herrera to shoot diagonally to double the gap.
In addition to his 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 left the field to make way for 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 slotting home in the third minute of stoppage time to seal a 4-0 win.
Man Utd booked their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with a thumping win at third-tier Yeovil. Also in the weekend's fixtures, Tottenham will face Newport, Liverpool will face West Brom, and Man City will visit Cardiff.
