Gary Lineker refuses to U-turn on brutal Manchester United verdict after Nottingham Forest win
manchestereveningnews.co.ukMatch of the Day host Gary Lineker has stood by his verdict on Manchester United despite the Reds coming from behind to beat Nottingham Forest 3-2 at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag's side found themselves 2-0 down inside four minutes at the Theatre of Dreams. Taiwo Awoniyi opened the scoring after two minutes, hitting the Reds on the counter from a corner to make it 1-0.
The advantage was doubled on four minutes when Willy Boly turned in a Forest free-kick. Following Forest's second, an unimpressed Lineker sarcastically tweeted: "Manchester United seem to have solved their problems." However, the Reds managed to rally and pulled one back on 17 minutes when Christian Eriksen prodded home.
United went into the break behind but were level seven minutes after the interval thanks to Casemiro. ALSO READ: Fernandes explains secret behind United comeback Forest's task was made harder midway through the second half as Joe Worrall was sent off following a challenge on Bruno Fernandes.
