Casemiro scores.
Bournemouth 0-1 Manchester United
By Valentine Amanze
Manchester United are on the verge of making the top-four list as Casemiro’s ninth minute acrobatic strike gave the Red Devils all the three points against AFC Bournemouth in their final Premier League away game on Saturday May 20, 2023.
The result was so important for Manchester United as their closest rival in the top-four bid, Liverpool, drew 1-1 at home with Aston Villa at the weekend.
With the beautiful strike,
Casemiro has now scored five goals in all competitions this season for the Red Devils.
The Red Devils need just one point from their final two games against Chelsea and Fulham to secure Champions League football at Old Trafford next season.
In a game lacking in clear-cut opportunities a piece of magic from Casemiro proved the difference at the Vitality Stadium.

BBC reports that the Brazilian midfielder picked up a beautifully weighted pass from Christian Eriksen and turned away from Marcos Senesi to acrobatically hammer home.
Without their top goal scorer this season, Marcus Rashford, who was absent from the squad with illness and missed the opportunity to equal his best tally of 17 goals in a single campaign, United struggled to mount regular goal threats.
