What a way to win a sportsbook football match, on this night of all nights sportsbook
Sneaking over the line against a team bottom of the Premier League without a single win to their name this season would not normally be an occasion to be marked down in the history books of England’s most successful team sportsbook
But hours after learning of the death of Sir Bobby Charlton, Mr Manchester United, the manner of the success, sealed by a strike the late, great Old Trafford icon would have been proud of, was the most fitting tribute yet sportsbook
The surprise source of the stunner that earned Man United their first back-to-back league victories of the season helped make the night one those in attendance will never forget sportsbook
Emotions were running high all around Bramall Lane ahead of kick off sportsbook
Man United fans were coming to terms with the passing of Charlton, a man who transcended generations given the affect he had on everyone at the club sportsbook
“One Bobby Charlton” came booming down from the away end as an emotional minute’s applause was observed pre-match, with home supporters waiting until the fourth minute to stand and celebrate the life of Blades legend Tommy Hoyland, who passed away earlier this month sportsbook
It was not the only message Man United supporters were keen to get across, with a Palestinian flag being unfurled before being swiftly packed away, as it is in defiance of the Premier League’s attempts to ban them, along with Israeli ones sportsbook
However, it was in fact the hosts who had the sportsbook better of the early chances, with under pressure Man United stopper Andre Onana making two fine saves to keep the Blades at bay, before, with their first real attack of the match, Scotland’s answer to Michel Platini, Scott McTominay, followed his double against Brentford last time out with another, scuffed strike into the bottom corner sportsbook

Bruno Fernandes saw a free-kick come out off the crossbar before the first-half was up, with Onana again called into action early in the second, blocking well from Rhian Brewster and tipping Oliver Norwood’s powerful effort over sportsbook
As the half wore on, though, there looked like there was only going to be one winner, as Man United lifted their levels to a standard more befitting the club’s greatest-ever player sportsbook
Rasmus Hojlund saw one fixing strike well saved, before Rashford really should have scored, dragging the ball agonisingly wide from a good position sportsbook

(PA Wire)Sofyan Amrabat then sent a rasping effort goalwards that cannoned out off the post, having looked in from the moment it left his boot, only for Fernandes to then arrow one just wide from the rebound sportsbook
Perhaps that winner was never going to come sportsbook
After all, this impression of a Manchester United side are a far cry from the Holy Trinity years of Charlton in his pomp, George Best slaloming past defenders and Dennis Law scoring goals for fun sportsbook
The match needed something special, for one final goodbye sportsbook
Step forward Diogo Dalot, who could not have hit the 25-yard winner any sportsbook better, arrowing into the top corner to spark wild scenes of celebration in the away end sportsbook
It was as if he had donned Charlton’s heavy, toe-capped, leather-studded boots in honour of the great man sportsbook
And what was the first song to celebrate a crucial success? Wor, Bobby would have been proud sportsbook

As often was the case amid an American society embedded in racism in the 1980s, Muhammed Ali put it best sportsbook
Advising black racing driver Willy T Ribbs, the people’s champion made his point in no uncertain terms: “There are Blacks in my sport sportsbook
But there are no Blacks in your sport sportsbook
“They’re going to want to kill you sportsbook
”Yet for all the death threats, discrimination and abuse, Ribbs had long decided that the only option was to meet the uphill battle head-on sportsbook
He made history in 1986 when he became the first Black driver to test an F1 car sportsbook
Five years later, he was the first to race in the Indy 500, one of the world’s most famous events sportsbook
But on the course of that journey, Ribbs faced it all sportsbook
Don’t let me tell you though; let the man himself sportsbook
“Of course, there were death threats, the n-word,” he reflects, in a slow but deadpan fashion that tells you the wounds have long since healed sportsbook
Instead, the metaphorical bruises are worn with pride sportsbook
“But I enjoyed it sportsbook
It didn’t make me mad, it was fun sportsbook
I was going to dish out what they were dishing out to me, it never scared or intimidated me sportsbook
I actually enjoyed it because it was motivating sportsbook
I was never going to play the victim, that was not Willy T Ribbs sportsbook
”Now 68, Ribbs is an ambassador for Formula One, raising awareness for diversity and equality sportsbook
A role given a matter of months after his riveting biopic movie, Uppity, was released in 2020 sportsbook
So titled because that was his nickname in motorsport circles – “and he loved it” sportsbook
But to this interview, he’s late sportsbook
And he apologises, quipping: “Race drivers are never late, you know! Or they’re not supposed to be…”Son to William “Bunny” Ribbs, an amateur racer himself, Willy’s career path was set in stone from day dot it seems sportsbook
It was the racing way or the highway sportsbook
Ribbs faced an avalanche of racism and abuse throughout his career (Getty)“I was born in this sport,” he tells The Independent, from his home in Texas sportsbook
“I watched it from three years old when my dad was racing, watching the likes of Jim Clark and Graham Hill sportsbook
That’s all that was discussed in the family sportsbook
We didn’t discuss any other sport sportsbook
“I was lucky, I think sportsbook
At nine years old, I knew what I wanted to do and I knew what my career path was going to be sportsbook
Most kids that age don’t know what the hell they’re going to do, but I did sportsbook
And I didn’t want to be an amateur at it – I wanted it to be a profession and I wanted it to be Formula One sportsbook
”He learned his craft, in the UK, racing alongside future F1 world champion Nigel Mansell in Formula Ford in the mid-1970s sportsbook
He raced in Nascar and the Trans-Am Series, later on, too sportsbook
But his F1 calling, in ’86, came in the Portuguese town of Estoril sportsbook
Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham team – “Bernie has always been good to Willy T Ribbs” – gave the American the chance to buck the trend and become a true trailblazer sportsbook
But the tag was not something he felt comfortable with at the time sportsbook
Ribbs made history in an F1 test in 1986 and in the Indy 500 in 1991 (Getty)“All that mattered was I thought of myself as a race driver,” he says sportsbook
“I had two responsibilities: to myself and to my team sportsbook
For those who record social history, that’s their job [to say trailblazer] – but I’m not going to carry that weight on my shoulders sportsbook
“Sure sportsbook
I was a role model because I was doing something no other Black kid had done sportsbook
And great, if that’s the category they want to put me in and how they want to document it sportsbook
But for me? It was about going fast sportsbook
”It was a mindset of not bowing to the status quo, embodied most especially in the late 20th century by Ali sportsbook
“What I admired about him the most was not his sportsbook boxing skills,” Ribbs says of Ali sportsbook
“What I admired about him was his resolve as a man, not to be squashed, manipulated or controlled sportsbook
Ali said: ‘You have to let them know that you can’t be killed, there’s nothing they can do to you, and then they’ll leave you alone for a while sportsbook
’”Now in motor racing, the baton has been passed on to seven-time Formula One world champion and the sport’s only Black driver Lewis Hamilton, whom Ribbs is full of praise about sportsbook
“Lewis Hamilton, after seven world titles and more victories than any other human being, gets unfairly targeted,” insists Ribbs sportsbook
“If you can equate it to Tiger Woods, what did Tiger Woods do for golf? He broadened the audience sportsbook
The attention went off the chart sportsbook
That’s exactly what happened in F1 – Lewis Hamilton has been Formula One’s Tiger Woods sportsbook
“He’s a very kind man sportsbook
He’ll let it roll off, turn the other cheek – I wasn’t that way sportsbook
He deals with it and in a lot of cases it’s unfair sportsbook
Then again, he is in an environment which was not nearly as brutal as I was dealing with sportsbook
Willy T Ribbs was treated differently sportsbook
”The third-person references point to a man who is now comfortable in his own skin; in the significance of the struggle – and what it means to many around the world sportsbook
And despite a sport notoriously still dominated by white men, progress is being made sportsbook
“One thing I love about Formula One is not only is it evolving commercially around the world, it’s evolving socially,” he says sportsbook
“When F1 hired me, I asked them: ‘What made you make this call?’“They said: ‘We watched your film and we thought you’d be the perfect person for inclusion and equality in Formula One sportsbook
’“I said: ‘Well, you called the right guy’ sportsbook
