Man U 3-2 Bodo Glimt: Post-match highlights as Amorim secure first win, helping Red Devils overtake in Europa League
• Ruben Amorim secures first win as new Red Devils boss
• Manchester United move up to 12th in the table, have nine points from their first five games and are unbeaten
Rasmus Hojlund scores twice
The troops have been adjusted quite a bit.
As Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim said in his pre-match press conference, he will rotate some players due to the team’s busy schedule.
The 39-year-old, who has stuck to a 3-4-3 or 3-4-2-1 formation, made six changes from the 1-1 draw at Ipswich on Sunday – with Lisandro Martinez, Antony, Manuel Ugarte, Tyrell Malacia, Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund all starting.
Malacia, who has been out for a long time due to injuries, made his first start in 550 days at left wing-back.
Antony made his first start in 72 days at right wing-back, while Mount made his first start in 96 days, supporting Rasmus Hojlund.
Bruno Fernandes was ordered to drop back into midfield alongside Ugarte.
3 – Mazraoui, De Ligt – Martinez
4 – Antony, Ugarte, Bruno, Malacia
3 – Mount, Hoylund, Garnacho
Amorim is searching for his 11 main players.
It’s been two games since Amorim took charge of the team, and the players who were previously injured are starting to recover from their injuries.
Only Victor Lindelof is in hospital, while Harry Maguire and Lanie Yoro have trained and are building their fitness.
It’s considered that you came back at the right time.
It is important to remember that Amorim has no pre-season, no warm-up games, and no time to get to know the players.
Changing the starting lineup to 6 people in this โปรโมชั่น ufabet game. In addition to rotating the players, is also an opportunity to try out the players. In addition, the opponents that they face are not too tough (but almost as bad) and they are playing at home.
Martinez – Operated on the left side of a 3-4-3 centre-back but for the second goal he conceded, space was wide open as he made high runs that put him out of position, although his feet were accurate, particularly his long passes into the final third.
Malacia — who has been off the pitch for a long time, still rusty. He was given the chance to play 45 minutes before being substituted at half-time. But in terms of performance, he still failed both defensively and offensively, especially his passing from the sideline. Which was extremely poor quality.
Antony – Played for an hour at right wing-back before being substituted. But he lacked aggression in the final third and was not a threat at all, and was forced into the game at times.
Mount – Was on the pitch for 60 minutes as well. In the first half, he had a small role and didn’t have many chances to play with his teammates in the upper half. But in the second half, he had a bigger role and almost scored a goal but unfortunately hit the crossbar.
However, he was involved in the moment when the team took a 3-2 lead.
Hoylund — The team’s hero in this game
6 people who Amorim rotates, you can see who has a chance to be in the new Red Devils boss’s favorite 11.
Only Kobbie Menu is still out, but he could be available for Sunday’s league game against Everton.
“We tried to look at it from a different perspective. I don’t know the players yet and I haven’t worked with them much. So we wanted to see it from a different perspective,” Ruben said after the game.
Will Hoylund be a hit in the Amorim era?
Two goals and one assist for the 21-year-old Danish striker in this match. It is a game for which he deserves a lot of credit.
He helped the team get the first goal of the game by running and pressuring visiting goalkeeper Nikita Haigin. Which he then assisted for Garnacho to easily score.
After that, he seemed to be isolated, with the ball rarely coming to him, before scoring a superb goal to make it 2-2 late in the first half, and finishing with the winner in the second half.
“This formation (3-4-3) reminds me of when I played for Atalanta and it suits me very well,” Hojlund said after the game.
Reuben loves Mazraoui.
The Morocco international defender continues to maintain his consistent form.
He started at right centre-back for the second time in the Ruben Amorim era.
He crossed for Hoylund to make it 2-2 and almost got another assist. When he laid on a long ball for Marcus Rashford to score in the second half.
The stats show that in terms of defense, Mazraoui made 4 clearances, 1 interception and 5 tackles.
Not only that, he also participated in the offensive game. He created 3 chances for his teammates to score, the second most on the team.
“He’s an incredible player. He’s our future. He always looks fresh, even though we have to be careful in every game. He’s the kind of player we need,” Amorim said.
