Ibra already dragging: Premier warned

Two games, two goals. And two wins. Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s journey in English soccer has started in the best of ways. After the decisive goal in the Community Shield against Leicester, the Swede also put his mark, albeit not decisive, on his Premier debut with Manchester United on the field of Bournemouth.

So also José Mourinho smiles, who passes 3-1 over the Cherries bringing himself keeping pace with Guardiola’s City already bringing himself to +3 on champion Leicester defeated in surprise at Hull. Waiting for the premiere of Conte’s Chelsea.

Waiting for the highly anticipated premiere of Pogba, blocked by a backward disqualification with Juventus, United did not enchant on the level of play, but to this perhaps we will have to get used.

After 20′ grays, Martial and Rooney made the general rehearsals for the lead, sealed in the 40th minute by Mata, Mou’s former “enemy,” good at taking advantage of a slip of the home defender Francis. In the second half, Manchester merely managed the ball, sinking with surgical precision: in the 15th minute Rooney doubled by taking advantage of an unintentional assist by Martial on Valencia’s cross, then in the 20th minute here was Ibra’s moment, with a powerful right-footer from the distance.

From Smith the hosts’ flag point that did not take away the Special One’s second smile of the season.
