Despite a promising start, United’s 13
match unbeaten run in all competitions
comes to an end after a 3-1 defeat
against Middlesbrough at Bramall Lane.
United took an early lead when Oli
McBurnie headed in his 12th goal in all
competitions, but Boro levelled before
the break through Chuba Akpom. United
missed good chances in the contest and
were punished in the second half when a
Cameron Archer brace bagged the three
points for Michael Carrick’s side.
