Amorim Says Man U Were Not Aggressive Enough in 1-0 Defeat to Chelsea
Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has admitted his team lacked the needed edge in the final third during their 1-0 defeat to Chelsea on Friday night. Marc Cucurella’s first-half header, set up by Reece James, was the difference at Stamford Bridge, handing United their 18th loss of the season and leaving them sitting 16th in the league.
Speaking after the match, Amorim said his side started well but just didn’t show enough aggression where it mattered most. “We approached the game the right way,” he said. “We had some bad luck and lost focus at key moments. We tried to press and push forward but just couldn’t finish.” Despite the loss, Amorim insisted the team was competitive. Up next, they’ll face Tottenham in the Europa League final on Wednesday.
Nigerian footballer, Ademola Lookman speaks on Nigeria’s Bronze from the Afcon game.
It can be recalled that the country won the medal after their victory against Egypt.
Lookman stated during an interview “Everyone wanted to win the gold medal. We came for the trophy, but it didn’t happen.”
“We leave the tournament with the bronze medal, and that is enough.”
Moroccan player Brahim Díaz speaks after his missed penalty that resulted in the country’s defeat to Senegal.
The player expressed how sad he was about the missed penalty and blames himself. “My soul hurts. I dreamed of this title because of all the love you guys have given me, every message and every act of support that made me feel like I wasn’t alone.”
“I gave my all, with my heart leading the way. I messed up yesterday, and I’m fully responsible for it. I’m really sorry for what happened.”
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
