Revealed: Who's your Man of the Match?

Tuesday 08 February 2022 22:45

Voting for Manchester United’s Man of the Match was close after the 1-1 with Burnley at Turf Moor on Tuesday evening.

The Reds took the lead through Paul Pogba after 19 minutes, with the France international firing home at the edge of the box from Luke Shaw’s cross.

United could have been three goals to the good after a strong start, as Raphael Varane had seen a potential first United goal ruled out just moments before Pogba’s strike, while a Clarets own goal was overturned for a Pogba foul on 21 minutes.

Who was United's best performer in the draw at Burnley?

Burnley came roaring out of the blocks after the break and Jay Rodriguez notched the equaliser to capitalise on good work from new signing Wout Weghorst.

Goalscorer Pogba had a big claim for your nomination after a first goal in 13 months, but it was another Red who ended up three percentage points clear.

Four days after his first Old Trafford goal, Jadon Sancho caught the eye on the wing once more.

Our no.25 was a constant threat down the left alongside Luke Shaw in the first half and he also saw plenty of joy when switched out to the right after the break.

Sancho garnered 32 per cent of your vote, with Pogba ending up on 29 per cent after the final whistle in East Lancashire.

David De Gea was third on 14 per cent - it was a fairly quiet night for our Spaniard, with his only significant save coming from Weghorst who threatened to double Burnley's lead just after Rodriguez's equaliser.

It's Jadon's second MOTM award of the season, with the England international also recognised after the 2-0 win at Villarreal back in November.
