“I’m sorry to say, but he can no longer work under me at United he made us concede three earlt lead”- Ruben Amorim breaks £73M forgotten Man United star’s heart and tells him to look for a new club by January- It’s the End
Manchester United suffered a thrilling 4-3 defeat to Tottenham in the League Cup quarterfinals. Despite a strong comeback, United couldn’t overcome their early mistakes.
Tottenham took an early lead when Altay Bayindir fumbled Pedro Porro’s long-range shot, allowing Dominic Solanke to score. Spurs added two more goals in the second half, courtesy of Dejan Kulusevski and Solanke’s second.
However, United staged a dramatic comeback, thanks to goals from Joshua Zirkzee and Amad, both of which were facilitated by Fraser Forster’s goalkeeping errors. Son Heung-min scored a late goal direct from a corner, but Jonny Evans’ stoppage-time strike made it 4-3.
Here’s how the Manchester United players rated:
– Altay Bayindir: 3 (poor goalkeeping)
– Leny Yoro: 7 (mature performance)
– Victor Lindelof: 5 (injured early)
– Lisandro Martinez: 4 (weak clearance led to a goal)
– Noussair Mazraoui: 6 (cynical foul, great chance to equalize)
– Manuel Ugarte: 7 (authoritative midfield performance)
– Christian Eriksen: 6 (vintage passing, but missed chances)
– Diogo Dalot: 5 (endeavour, but no conviction)
– Bruno Fernandes: 6 (frivolous at times, but created chances)
– Antony: 4 (lacked pace, made way early)
– Rasmus Hojlund: 5 (dominated by Radu Dragusin)
Substitutes:
– Jonny Evans: 6 (grew into the game)
– Joshua Zirkzee: 7 (good header, scored a goal)
– Kobbie Mainoo: 7 (energized the midfield)
– Amad: 8 (gave United a shot in the arm, scored a goal)
– Alejandro Garnacho: 5 (tried to make something happen, but didn’t)
Manager: 6 (rotated the goalkeeper, proactive substitutions)
