Manchester United edge out Norwich
Manchester United took on Norwich in Saturday’s late Premier League kick-off.
It was not pretty, but Ralf Rangnick’s side eventually came away with a 1-0 win.
It would be Cristiano Ronaldo who scored the winner, converting from 12 yards after being fouled by Max Aarons.

Though Ronaldo scored the penalty, he, Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes and more looked well bellow their best vs Norwich.

Now, after his impressive display, De Gea has revealed what Rangnick wants from him.
As per the Spaniard, his new boss wants him to be ready for the long-ball in behind because the German is eager for United to play very high:
“It’s good, we’re defending better, today we conceded too many chances but he wants me to be ready for the long ball in-behind because he wants us to play very high, I have to be focused for the whole game.
“I was feeling very good, I was enjoying the game, I was focused, I knew I had to make a couple of saves so I made them and helped the team win the game. “Every save is important – especially when the team wins.
“I’m feeling very good, very strong, very confident. The most important thing is helping the team with my experience.”
