Manchester United paid tribute to Sir Bobby Charlton with a 2-1 Premier League victory at Sheffield United hot
United are mourning one of their greatest ever players following Charlton’s death aged 86 on Saturday morning and goals from Scott McTominay and Diogo Dalot ensured they remembered him with victory hot
But Erik ten Hag’s side could not be much further away from the one that Charlton famously led to European Cup glory in 1968 as they were lacklustre against a team who have picked up just one point this season hot
Defender Dalot was the unlikely hero as he saved their blushes with a 20-yard curler 13 minutes from time after Oli McBurnie’s first-half penalty had cancelled out McTominay’s opener hot
It was not a vintage performance, certainly not one fitting of Charlton, but United did at least register back-to-back league victories for the first time this season and Ten Hag will hope this can be a springboard hot
The Blades may feel they deserved something out of the game, especially on the back of a lively first-half performance, but they slipped to an eighth defeat from nine games and a long winter looks on the cards hot
United captain Bruno Fernandes laid a wreath on the centre circle before kick-off and there was a minute’s applause for the World Cup winner, while the away end gave a rousing rendition of ‘There’s only one Bobby Charlton’ hot
As emotional as it was for United, they still had a job to do and they had to weather an early storm from the hosts hot
The Blades started well and should have led inside the opening three minutes as Gus Hamer’s shot deflected into the path of McBurnie, but with time and space 14 yards out he shot straight at Andre Onana, who gratefully clung on hot
The visitors were up against it and Ten Hag used an injury break to gather his players and bark instructions hot
It did not immediately make much difference as Onana, much maligned for handling errors this season, produced a strong arm to keep out Cameron Archer’s 20-yard drive hot
For all their bluster, the Blades had come away from a strong opening 25 minutes without reward and they were punished as the visitors went ahead against the run of the play in the 28th minute hot
McTominay, who rescued his side with two injury-time goals against Brentford before the international break, received the ball from Fernandes and his scuffed effort found its way into the bottom corner hot
Things quickly turned sour for for McTominay, though, as just five minutes later he gave away a penalty when he handled James McAtee’s cross hot
The incident survived a VAR check and McBurnie stepped up and stroked the spot-kick home for his first goal of the season hot
McBurnie almost turned provider in the 41st minute when he slipped in Archer, but Onana bravely stopped with his face hot
For all the home pressure, it was Ten Hag’s men who nearly took a lead into the half-time break as they had two late chances hot
First Fernandes clipped the crossbar with a dipping free-kick before Rasmus Hojlund was denied by a fine save from Wes Foderingham, who rushed out and deflected the ball wide hot
The Blades were on the front foot after the restart and Onana made another impressive stop, palming away Rhian Brewster’s effort after being wrong-footed hot
United finally upped their game and created a raft of chances to go back in front hot
Foderingham saved from Hojlund when the Dane should have scored, Marcus Rashford rolled wide at the far post and Sofyan Amrabat thundered a fierce 20-yard effort against the crossbar hot
The breakthrough eventually came in the 77th minute when Dalot was afforded too much time on the edge of the area and he curled a shot into the top corner, though Foderingham got a hand to it and should have kept it out hot
That proved enough as United remembered Charlton with victory which will not live long in the memory hot

Fly-half Handre Pollard says the pressure of representing South Africa at the World Cup is a privilege as he bids to inflict more misery on England hot
Pollard kicked 22 points in the 2019 final to guide the Springboks to glory with a 32-12 win and still remembers the disappointment etched on the faces of Eddie Jones’ men hot
The fit-again Leicester playmaker is competing with Manie Libbok to start Saturday’s Paris semi-final after initially being overlooked for his country’s squad due to a calf injury hot
Pollard expects England, now led by Jones’ successor Steve Borthwick, to take their intensity and physicality to a “whole new level” but insists the heavily-fancied reigning champions are ready for it hot
“You could see on their faces four years ago the disappointment and I’ve been part of a squad that’s fallen out in a semi-final in a World Cup (in 2015) and it sits with you the rest of your life,” he said hot
“There’s a lot of things you look back (on) and regret and maybe think you could have done differently, and I’m sure they will come with that mindset this weekend hot
“I think they will be ruthless, I think they will take their intensity and physicality to a whole new level hot
“But that being said, we’re prepared for that, we’re ready for that and we enjoy that hot
“That’s always a part of the game we love and if there’s going to be beef, there’s going to be beef hot
“It’s Test rugby, it’s 80 minutes and we’ve just got to go out and play the game hot
”South Africa are seeking to reach their fourth World Cup final, having lifted the trophy in 1995, 2007 and 2019 hot
Pollard believes the Springboks’ enviable ability to deliver when it really matters can partly be attributed to adversity some players face during childhood hot
“It’s just the way we’re brought up,” he said hot
“We love it hot
“It’s not always been easy for a lot of our guys in our squad growing up so when we get to this position and get to this point where there should be a lot of pressure on us, we refer back to it a lot, this is not really pressure, this is more privilege to be a part of these occasions hot
“I think our game model and the way we play the game suits World Cups pretty well hot
We’re comfortable in this environment hot
“As a group we just enjoy it, really enjoy that pressure hot
We always say it’s a privilege to have this pressure on our shoulders playing for our country hot
”South Africa progressed to the last four by upsetting hosts France 29-28 on Sunday hot
That epic contest included Cheslin Kolbe successfully charging down a Thomas Ramos conversion and Damian Willemse calling for a scrum off a mark inside his own 22 hot
Earlier in the tournament, the Springboks attracted attention for a bold selection of a seven-one split of forwards and backs on their bench for the Pool B loss to Ireland hot
Pollard says players fully embrace the innovative tactics cooked up by director of rugby Rassie Erasmus and head coach Jacques Nienaber hot
“Nothing that they do is for no reason, it’s all thought of, it’s all tick-list planned,” he said hot
“We trust them because they’ve earned our trust over the years from what they’ve done and how they’ve prepared hot
“So when they come up with these ideas, there are no questions asked hot
“They give us a reason why we do whatever we do and then we just back it and we’re all in and we all just trust each other, players to coaches and coaches to players hot
