Manchester United Boss, José Mourinho Explains Why His Boys Defeated Arsenal 2-1


Manchester United boss, Jose Mourinho has explained the reasons his boys beat Arsenal 2-1 in the English Premier League  game played on Sunday, April 29 at Old Trafford.

The Reds were heading towards a frustrating home draw after former Red Devils player, Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored to cancel out Paul Pogba’s opener.

Midfielder, Marouane Fellaini beat three Gunners defenders to head past goalkeeper, David Ospina in the 92nd minute of the match to give Mourinho’s side the deserved three points.

Mourinho, who completed a Premier League double over Arsenal for the first time since the 2011-12 campaign, said his side were stronger in the last 20 minutes of the match.

The United boss believes the victory against Arsene Wenger’s men was well deserved overall.

“I think if it was a draw it wouldn’t be unfair. Arsenal did a good game, they defended well, but we were the team that tried to win that created a few more chances,” Mourinho told Sky Sports. “But that is normal.

“We were a bit lucky to score, but we were stronger in the last 20 minutes. We won three points that kill the Champions League story. But we still need four points to finish second which is what we want,” he added.

7 Greatest Sportsmen Of All Time

There are often arguments and counterarguments on who the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time are. Some sports historians, analysts, and supporters pick their own choices not necessarily on facts but emotions.  In picking the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time, I briefly checked their achievements not just in their specific fields but also their impact outside the world of sports. 1. Boxing legend, Muhammad Ali has been crowned the best sports athlete of all time in a star-studded list. The 'Greatest' is widely considered the best boxer in history and arguably the most iconic sports star of the 20th century.  Ali was not just a beauty to watch in the boxing ring, the greatest pugilist positively influenced decisions in many countries globally.  2.

Ramadan Daily Digest, which is an annual article on the stable of Naijaloveinfo with hashtag, #RamadanDailyDigest will be discussing briefly the significance of moonsighting and the commencement of Ramadan. Ramadan, which is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar is the only month in which Muslims, the world over fast from dawn till sunset for 29 or 30 days. Allaah commands Muslims to fast as stated in some parts of Suuratul Baqara (chapter 2) of The Glorious Qur'an. The Glorious Qur'an is the first and most important book to all Muslims. For all the Islamic months, starting from Muharram (first month) to Dhul Hajj (12th month), the numbers of days in each of these 12 months are often 29 days and once in a while 30 days. The interesting thing about counting days is that the crescent (new moon) plays an important role. Therefore, the significance of moonsighting is the first consideration before starting the Ramadan fasting.  The question that could come up is why do Muslims co...
