In a match marking Casemiro's farewell at the "Theatre of Dreams," the home team started with great enthusiasm and quickly took the lead in the 5th minute. Taking advantage of a hesitant clearance by the opposing defense, Luke Shaw unleashed a powerful volley into the bottom corner, marking his first goal since January 2023.

The visitors also had some notable chances. Morgan Gibbs-White broke through and was one-on-one but couldn't beat goalkeeper Senne Lammens, who made an excellent save. Conversely, Bryan Mbeumo missed a chance to double the lead when his shot hit the post.
In the second half, Nottingham Forest pushed forward and equalized in the 54th minute. From a well-executed corner kick, Morato rose high to head the ball into the net, scoring the club's first goal.

However, Manchester United quickly regained the lead. Matheus Cunha capitalized on a scramble in the penalty area to make it 2-1. The goal was controversial as there were indications of a handball by Mbeumo beforehand, but after consulting VAR, the referee still awarded it.

The biggest contribution continued to come from Bruno Fernandes. In the 72nd minute, the Portuguese midfielder delivered a precise cross for Mbeumo to easily tap the ball into the net from close range, ending his 11-game goalless streak. With this assist, Fernandes reached 20 assists in a single Premier League season, matching legends like Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.
The final minutes of the match were tense as Gibbs-White pulled one back to make it 2-3, but that was all the visitors could manage. This victory helped Manchester United finish the season in an impressive third place, and also strengthened their chances of being appointed as manager in the near future.
