Casemiro shines with goal as Manchester United win English League Cup
[ad_1]
Manchester United beat Newcastle 2-0 this Sunday (26) and won the English League Cup at Wembley. Casemiro opened the scoring and showed why the Red Devils were right to sign him. In addition to the goal, the Brazilian was the owner of the midfield throughout the match, always with a strong marking and calling the crowd to participate in the game. The other would be from Rashford, but was flagged against Botman.
United had not won a title for nearly six years. The last one was the Europa League of the 2016-2017 season, still under the command of José Mourinho. Newcastle remain in drought. The team has not won a title since 1969, the predecessor of the current Europa League, called the Fairs Cup. Since then, they have been defeated in the FA Cup final in 1974, 1998 and 1999, and in two League Cups, in 1976 and this edition.
