Solskjaer reveals who caused Man Utd’s defeat against Arsenal

Manchester United fell to their first domestic defeat under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer when they were convincingly beaten 2-0 by Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. Since the Norwegian took over, they had gone undefeated in 13 consecutive games in the Premier League before that run came to an end. Meanwhile, Arsenal were able to win their ninth straight league match at home. A rare error from David De Gea in the first half helped the Gunners lead at the interval as he misjudged a swerving strike from Granit Xhaka, which wrong-footed him and flew into the net.

The home side added to their lead in the second half when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang resumed penalty duties after his miss against Tottenham last week, comfortably rolling the ball in on this occasion.

Manchester United interim manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has blamed his players for giving Arsenal too much room, following their 2-0 loss at the Emirates on Sunday. Granit Xhaka’s shot swerved past David De Gea to give the Gunners the lead, before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sealed victory from the spot in the second half. Solskjaer feels his players had a hangover from their 3-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain in midweek and started slowly.

“Well we started slow and maybe a backlash from Wednesday. We created chances but when they get the first goal it’s a different game. “We played a better game today than in the cup. We had more chances. Sometimes this happens. “Today I can’t remember any proper saves De Gea has to make. I think the referee will be disappointed when he sees the penalty again.


“The ball moves so strangely and when you see it again it’s one of those things, but we were too slow. First fifteen minutes we didn’t put them under pressure. We gave him time to hit that ball. “The first goal decides how the game goes. “One of those games that you have, it’s now about how we respond against Wolves in the cup,” Solskjaer told Sky Sports after the game.

Do you agree with Solskjaer for blaming his players for the loss or you think he’s just looking for an excuse?

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
