Martial matches Cantona achievement

Anthony Martial's derby opener against Manchester City saw the United forward match a goalscoring feat last managed by the great Eric Cantona.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men made the breakthrough 30 minutes in to take the lead at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Having battled to a 2-1 victory over City at the Etihad Stadium back in December, the Reds once more held the upper hand as they went into half-time with a 1-0 advantage thanks to Martial.

He had also found the net on that occasion and at almost the exact same time, hitting United's second after 29 minutes following Marcus Rashford's early opener.

And Martial was additionally on target the previous time he kicked off a Manchester derby, scoring from the spot in November 2018's 3-1 reverse, meaning he has now scored in his last 3 Premier League starts against Pep Guardiola's charges.

Only Cantona, who used to revel in causing United's cross-city neighbours grief, can boast of a comparable record in such games.

Martial's compatriot indeed went even further, netting in 5 consecutive starts against City in a run that stretched from 1993 to 1996.

Furthermore, Martial is the first Red Devils player to score home and away against City in a single season since Cristiano Ronaldo did so in 2006-2007.

Sunday's goal marks Martial's 4th in his last 6 United matches and he now boasts 16 in all competitions for the Reds.

United trigger 1-year option in Matic's contract

Manchester United have triggered the 1-year option in Nemanja Matic's contract and are in discussions about a new deal.

Matic had entered the last 4 months of his contract, but United have tied him to the club until 2021.

The 31-year-old had been open to leaving during the January window but he has forced his way back into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's plans after a string of impressive performances in the absence of Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay.

The Serbia international started 9 of the last 10 Premier League games for United, only missing one due to a one-game suspension.

Matic signed a 3-year deal plus the 1-year extension when he moved to Old Trafford from Chelsea in 2017.

United confirm Ighalo loan extension

Manchester United have confirmed an extension to Odion Ighalo's loan deal which will see him stay at the club until January 2021.

The striker arrived from Chinese Super League club Shanghai Shenhua on a temporary loan deal on the final day of the January transfer window, to provide Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with cover for the injured Marcus Rashford who was sidelined with a back issue.

The Nigerian, who previously played for Premier League side Watford, impressed in his 8 appearances before lockdown and the consequent postponement of football - scoring 4 goals in 3 starts - and the club were keen to extend his loan until the end of the campaign.

Discussions with Shenhua have been protracted, with the Chinese club keen to have their forward back for the start of the Super League season.

However, after weeks of negotiations, the two clubs agreed on a deal which will see Ighalo stay at Old Trafford on loan until the end of January 2021.

United have already had to pay Shenhua a loan fee for the initial 5-month spell and it is understood the Chinese side will receive another payment from the Red Devils for the extended period.

While there have been no discussions to keep the 30-year-old at the club on a permanent basis, Solskjaer has been keen from the start to have Ighalo in his squad for the end of the season.

The 23-year-old midfielder made his debut in 2017 against Arsenal and has gone on to make 75 appearances for the first team, scoring 6 goals.

Manchester United face Sheffield United at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

Martial & Rashford achieve Man United first

Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford have become the first Manchester United pairing since Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez to record 10 or more Premier League goals at Old Trafford in a single season.

Two fearsome frontmen hit that mark during a meeting with Bournemouth.

The Red Devils fell behind in that contest, with some questionable defending allowing Junior Stanislas to open the scoring.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have, however, been in imperious form of late and hit back in style.

Exciting teenage forward Mason Greenwood drew them level, before Rashford was given the opportunity to convert from the penalty spot.

The England international made no mistake, taking him onto 20 goals for the season across all competitions.

Martial has joined his team-mate in that goal club after curling home a spectacular third for United before half-time against the Cherries - with Dimitar Berbatov and Javier Hernandez the last duo to get 20 apiece.

France international Martial has also matched Rashford in reaching double figures for the campaign on home soil, with the Red Devils having waited 12 years for two men to achieve that feat.

While Solskjaer saw his front 3 do the damage in the opening 45 minutes against Bournemouth, Bruno Fernandes was once again pulling the strings in midfield.

Another 2 assists have been added to his remarkable tally, to go along with the 5 Premier League goals he had already recorded - prior to crashing home a free-kick after the interval.

Having teed up 5 efforts for others, the Portugal international has contributed to 11 goal involvements in just 9 games.

Only 2 players can claim to have been as productive for United - legendary Frenchman Eric Cantona and Dutch striker Robin van Persie.

Matic signs new 3-year contract

Nemanja Matic has agreed a new 3-year deal at Manchester United, which keeps the midfielder at the club until 2023.

The Serbian's Old Trafford career looked to be nearing its end in January with the midfielder open to leaving during the winter window but he forced his way back into manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's plans after a string of impressive performances in the early part of 2020 during the absence of the injured Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay.

In March, United triggered a one-year option in Matic's previous contract and began discussions on an improved deal.

Matic has been a key figure in United's impressive form since the Premier League's restart, coming off the bench against Tottenham Hotspur before starting in each of their last 3 league victories.

He joined United from Chelsea in 2017 following 3-and-a-half years at Stamford Bridge. Matic has since featured 114 times for United, scoring 4 goals.
