Manchester United’s resurgence in the English Premier League following a 4-2 win over Brighton on Saturday, October 25, 2025, has sparked quite a reaction among its Kenyan fans.

The victory awakened a section of its Kenyan fanbase as the club celebrated a third league win on the trot on Saturday, October 25, 2025, at Old Trafford.

Cunha’s first goal

Goals from Matheus Cunha and Casemiro set the hosts on their way before a brace from Cameroonian star Bryan Mbeumo sealed the win after a nervy ending at Old Trafford.

Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi led the political class in commending Ruben Amorim’s charges for the huge win that the club’s faithful hope will revive the team’s dying embers following a dismal start to the campaign.

In his statement on X, Mbadi hailed a tactical display of precision and versatility, signalling a return to the team’s nostalgic form of old.

“Proudly United. Cohesion, tactical versatility, offensive resilience & determination. “This is the Manchester United we know,” he stated.

His sentiments were mirrored by Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro, who jibbed that the Red Devils remain the best team in the entire world.

The victory for United came with plenty to savour, after rivals Chelsea suffered a late heartbreak against Sunderland in an earlier clash.

“Sisi kama Manchester United hata hatuongei leo. Tumetulia tu. Haya ni mambo tumezoea. We are the biggest, largest and most spectacular team in the entire world,” he tweeted.

“We win when we want and let other smaller teams win only when we want.”

United cruise

In a remarkable performance that contained plenty of positives to pick, United not only smashed the game but also earned their third league win on the bounce.

New signing Matheus Cunha broke his Premier League duck with a long-awaited goal for the former giants.

Meanwhile, custodian Senne Lammens continued his fine streak between the sticks, continuing his fine form from the clash against Liverpool, as Mbeumo stole the show with a stylish brace to cap off the splendid display.

The win moved United to fourth on the log and back among the early contenders for the season’s honours after a slow start to the season.

The team could, however, drop further down as more matches take centre stage on Sunday.
