United picked up the pace in the final 15 minutes of the half and seriously searched for an equalizer, with Nani and Wayne Rooney running
through multiple defenders on their own on a few occasions.
Defenders are in fact becoming more like their colleagues further forward in their abilities to start moves out from the back and push - on, high up the field, not just breaking
through the different lines in possession, from defence into midfield and even attack, but almost playing
multiple positions at once.
