Manchester United have achieved a new club record after overcoming Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.
Manchester United defied the odds to beat PSG at the Parc des Princes 2-1 on Tuesday night. A kind of unexpected triumph in France has helped Ole Gunnar Solskjaer set a new club record.
Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford both found the net to ensure a 10th consecutive win on the road for the Red Devils.
Indeed, Solskjaer’s men have reached a new landmark, meaning they have racked up ten straight away wins, neutral venues excluded.
As reported by the club’s official website, Manchester United have beaten their nine-game winning away streak by outplaying PSG.
Their longest-ever winning run away from Old Trafford started with an FA Cup quarter-final triumph at Norwich City back in June.
It’s safe to say that Bruno Fernandes and Rashford have been the architects of their team’s purple patch of form.
The Portuguese playmaker has clocked up seven goals during that abovementioned run, while the English star recorded five.
Curiously, United’s previous longest winning streak also came under Solskjaer’s tutelage. The Norwegian manager guided his side to nine successive away triumphs immediately after taking charge in December 2018.
Manchester United will now be looking to translate their impressive away form into their home commitments.
Solskjaer’s men will take on Chelsea at Old Trafford in a massive, heavyweight Premier League clash this weekend.
