Eriksen, Rashford Give Man Utd 2-0 Win Over Burnley In EFL Cup Match

December 22, (THEWILL) – With goals from Christian Eriksen and Marcus Rashford, Manchester United defeated Burnley 2-0 to go handily to the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup at Old Trafford.

The legendary Vincent Kompany of Manchester City, frequently defeated United in derbies, but on Wednesday, his return to Manchester United as manager of Burnley resulted in defeat in the fourth round.

In United’s first game after the World Cup, Rashford extended their slim lead in the second half after Eriksen had given the team the lead in the 27th minute.

Burnley, the Championship league’s top team, had several impressive plays but were punished for squandering opportunities as Erik Ten Hag’s team advanced to the round of 16, which draw will be made on Thursday.

The English Premier League match against Nottingham Forest is up next for the Red Devils. Meanwhile, in the Championship match against Birmingham City, Burnley will turn its focus back to its bid for promotion to the EPL.
