Lisandro Martinez delivered an “UNSTOPPABLE” performance in Manchester United’s victory over Southampton, achieving 7 recoveries and winning 100% of his duels.
Lisandro Martinez was a standout performer in Man Utd’s win over Southampton.
Man Utd won 3-0 as Matthijs de Ligt put in a quality performance. Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho scored, while Manuel Ugarte made a decent debut.
However, it would be a mistake to leave out Lisandro Martinez. Last season was a nightmare of injuries for the player. He is now in much better shape.
Along with De Ligt, Martinez showed signs of forming a partnership that could form the foundation of a Man Utd defence.
He was almost everywhere in defence, covering well for his teammates and playing out from deep.
Martinez finished the game with a 97% passing accuracy (58/60), completing both dribbles, making two tackles and winning all his challenges (3/3)
Added to that seven recoveries and four interceptions, it was a truly all-round performance from the player affectionately known as ‘The Butcher’ by United fans.
