#4 Through Balls
When a team has willing runners in front of the midfield, it requires people of great vision to track them to have an effective game. Thankfully for United, all three men in the middle were on song on the night.
Pogba, Matic and Herrera took turns to play the role of the provider, but every run on the night was tracked and the United midfield churned up one gorgeous ball after another to tear apart the Bournemouth defense. Matic, normally the one responsible to stop the opposition attacks, was brilliant, to say the least in this regard.
He sent a gem of a ball early in the first half to Martial, which cut the opposition into two, and almost made them pay. It was from his brilliant vision that United ultimately found the third goal.
Herrera, popping up everywhere on the field, had his moments too, sending in great through balls and also picking up an assist with a gorgeous cross for the second goal. Paul Pogba spent most of his time near the box, scoring goals, yet sent in numerous lobbed balls and through passes. It was this strategy applied by Solskjaer that killed off Bournemouth.
