Manchester United 3 v Newcastle United 1. The 21st of February. 21 years old. And today in 2021 we once again remember Duncan Edwards who sadly died on this day in 1958 from injuries he sustained in the Munich Air Disaster 15 days earlier.
A truly sad time for Manchester United and an awfully sad time for all his family and friends. A tragic incident. Lest we forget. And hopefully I’ll get my Duncan Edwards article up on here later this week.
As for tonight’s match, the score line suggests an easy routine victory for United over a relegation threatened Newcastle United. However, it was far from routine with United looking like their usual wobbly selves for the opening ten minutes or so.
Thankfully we improved (not massively) as the game went on and we got the win, thanks again to our attacking players. However, the usual defensive errors and frailties from us allowed Newcastle more chances than they should have had and that kept them in the game for the majority.
