Man Utd star Katie Zelem scores three goals in a row directly from CORNERS – in just her last two matches

NOBODY does set-pieces quite like Manchester United star Katie Zelem.

The Red Devils’ skipper scored two goals in four minutes against Leicester on Saturday afternoon – both directly from corners.

But what makes Zelem’s achievement even more remarkable is the fact she netted against Manchester City last week too, also directly from a corner.

That was in a losing effort, but Zelem’s brace of set-piece goals today helped United cruise to victory.

With the Red Devils already comfortably 2-0 up against Leicester, Zelem stepped up to take a corner from the left-hand side.

The 26-year-old curled a tasty delivery into the area with so much whip on it Foxes shot-stopper Demi Lambourne completely missed her attempted punch clear.

Zelem’s effort then somehow evaded a scrum of bodies on the line and found the bottom corner of the net.

But if scoring one corner wasn’t enough, Zelem amazingly repeated the feat just four minutes later.

BETTING SPECIAL – GET CITY AT 25/1 OR UNITED AT 100/1

Again the United skipper stepped up to take a corner on the left hand side.

This time her delivery was deeper, and towards the back post.

The final result was the same though.

Keeper Lambourne was caught napping again as the ball sailed over her head and found the back of the net, via the inside of the far post.

Her two goals in bizarre circumstances helped the Red Devils climb to third in the Women’s Super League table, six points behind leaders Arsenal.
