Football Champions League Manchester United vs Club Brugge Match 2015
The teams are in good form & today the clash will be tough as both the team are desperate to win this game to survive, United have begun their league very promisingly. They conquered Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa by 1-0 but then they seemed to be out of form and lost the focus. Henceforth, the result proved to be really worst for the Manchester United. Louis van Gaal said that his team is full of confidence and energetic. He added that when any team wins 2 consecutive matches they automatically get the potential power to rule the next game. They are ready to defend and offend the opponent.
This match is also exigent as the teams are with potential goal scoring players & so it will be a tough practice session for the upcoming matches. Van Gaal will be devoid of David de Gea while Phil Jones is having minor thrombosis & resulting the non-availability of him in the team. Adnan will be surely playing the today’s game as he scored in the last Friday’s match. The main concern will be of Bastian Schweinsteiger as he is a positive impact and is willing to push the start against Villa.
Yes indeed the Captain Wayne Rooney is not in his greatest form but Van Goal backs him up saying that today he will surely stub the opportunity and net a goal to make a come back. Rooney is a star player and a striker of his team.
United have never ever lost a match in Champions League/ European League Qualification match so it will be interesting to see the optimism of the team as their only sole defeat in last 16 qualifying games was 0-1 at Zalaegerszeg in 2002-03. The team got thrown out in the 3rd qualifying round & from then the momentum of the team has been spectacular till now.
Today’s match will be one of the greatest matches of English Premier league as it is worthy to justify the reputation of the players and team both. Merson predicted that Brugge though have a bad season beginning and United have not performed their best. Both have the same chance of winning but if choosing 1 team then it would be United because Van Gaal is supposed to make a mark by cage the goal in today’s crucial match
