Manchester United took a big step towards a top four finish by beating Bournemouth 1-0 at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday.
United started brightly and took the lead within nine minutes as Casemiro adapted his body brilliantly to acrobatically volley in Christian Eriksen’s through ball. Bournemouth still had a threat though, with Dominic Solanke forcing a sharp stop from David de Gea.
The visitors controlled for most of the second half but were unable to put the game to bed and were late in their debt to their goalkeeper as De Gea made a crucial one-on-one save to disallow substitute Kieffer Moore.
