Caught on Camera: Maguire's amazing goal-saving block vs Aston Villa

MUTV

The captain was arguably the best defender in the side, looking proactive and energetic in his half.

Maguire made a number of crucial challenges to avert danger, but his best came in the second half.

Around the 63rd minute, Villa substitute 

But Maguire leapt to action, making a clutch block to send it away for a corner and deny Bailey his second goal.

The Englishman was substituted later on and was unlucky to see United concede a late equalizer nonetheless.

'That is not good': Ten Hag gives verdict on Aston Villa draw to end Asia pre-season tour

 surrendering a two-goal lead in their 2-2 draw against 

 said: “First-half decent performance, 2-0 up.

“And second-half we came bad out of the dressing room, we had control of that game and then we gave it away. That is not good, so that is a lesson.”

Giving his thoughts on United’s performances in the entire pre-season tour of Asia (Thailand and Australia), he added: “From the players, from the team, I think we have made a lot of progress.

“I will say there have been a lot of positive aspects and, in the end, also a setback, and that is also part of the season because a season is not always getting up. You will also have setbacks that you have to deal with.”

United saw their 100% winning run under Ten Hag end with the draw against Villa, but they remain unbeaten under the Dutch manager.

Sancho - 9, Van de Beek - 4: rating Man United players in Aston Villa draw

Sancho had a ball even on a dismal pitch and constantly troubled the Aston Villa defenders with his movement. Scored a great goal with a swift finish to a nice move and set up the second by running past the backline and cutting in a nice pass. Oozed class with his movement, tricked past defenders and created a lot of chances as his impressive pre-season continues.

Playing in a deeper midfield role under constant pressure, Fred held his own admirably well. The Brazilian kick-started almost all the attacking moves with crisp passing and won back possession with some key interceptions too. Played a major role in the second goal, playing a great long ball to send Sancho through and looked an ever-energetic figure in midfield.

Maguire had another really good game at the back and acted as the commander in United’s backline. Came up with a number of clutch, crunching challenges to win back the ball and save his side. Made a brilliant goal-saving block in the second half and also moved the ball forward well. Settling in well to the new system.

Had a nice little battle with Matty Cash on his side and got the better of him quite often, getting into promising areas and using his pace to cause trouble. Made a nice pass to help set up the opener and the second was because of his scuffed shot hitting Cash before going into the goal.

Bruno took some time to get going in the rainy conditions, but was again an alter figure in that no.8 role. Made a lot of smart defence-splitting passes and kept things moving forward smoothly. Bit unlucky not to get an assist for his heroics, but another efficient, hard-working effort.

Shaw looked superb in the first half, making some great forward runs and picking out Sancho for his goal. But struggled against Leon Bailey in the second half, losing mark of him for his goal and had to be substituted after looking tired.

In his first start under Erik ten Hag, Van de Beek struggled to impress. Hardly showed any creativity with his passes and was too safe with his distribution. Was bullied off the ball a couple of times and didn’t seem comfortable.

De Gea – 5/10, Dalot – 6/10, Lindelof – 5/10, Martial 7/10

Wan-Bissaka – 6/10, Bailly – 6/10, Varane – 5/10, Malacia – 6/10, Telles – 5.5/10, Garner – 7/10, Iqbal – 6/10, Chong – 6/10, Elanga – 5.5/10, Hannibal – 6/10

I am always hoping Maguire will come better.

Someone will pal although the 'we hate Maguire brigade' are rather quiet after another solid performance from our captain!!

Hopefully bud but they're out there wanting him to fail!

Gam@U3

Don't worry the same old moron's will always be waiting for Maguire to make a mistake before they vent there rubbish.

ERIC THE GREAT CANTONA

With respect Sir there is no such thing as “We hate Maguire Brigade” he did had a good game today but one good performance in a preseason does not negate consistency of bad performances in the competitive matches.

players everywhere makes mistakes in every team, DeGea made a mistake in AV’s second goal which no body will talk about it, but if he makes another one in the next game then in another game, surely the fans will start speaking regardless of his statures or past performances, this is the situation about Maguire.

Exactly my point! Maguire singularly got criticism last season when it was clearly a collective issue! 
I wanted Martial gone  because he didn't try! Maguire could never be accused of that!

Yes he did great against Palace, but I respectfully disagree about the “we hate Maguire brigade”
There was a time it was M Felleini then there is Pogba so every time a team is not performing there is always a scapegoat, most of the time is the managers but as player if you keep making errors on more consistent basis you’ll be the scapegoat
