"Having gone a goal down early in the second half through Tomas Soucek, the Reds were chasing the game and Sesko was thrown on just shy of the 70th minute to help the cause. Help he would in the sixth minute of added time, as Bryan Mbeumo swept an inswinging cross into the hosts' penalty area towards Sesko. Almost level with the near post, on the edge of the six-yard box, the Slovenian reversed his first-time effort around marker Axel Disasi and beyond Mads Hermansen's reach to level the game."
"That's perhaps unsurprising news given the Slovenia international gave fans three dramatic, late and crucial goals to vote for across the month. His efforts against against Fulham, West Ham United and Everton, all from the bench, were the critical factor on each occasion, netting seven points in total for Michael Carrick's side."
Benjamin Sesko, a 22-year-old Slovenian striker, earned Manchester United's Goal of the Month award for February after scoring three crucial late goals from the bench. His winning goal came against West Ham United in the 96th minute, an expertly executed first-time finish that equalized the match after United fell behind early in the second half. Sesko also scored decisive goals against Everton and Fulham during the month, contributing seven points to Michael Carrick's side. His West Ham equalizer received 34% of the total vote, with his Everton finish coming second at 30%, demonstrating his impact as an impact substitute throughout February.
