Amorim Says Man United’s Late FA Cup Win Wasn’t “Fergie Time”
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has downplayed suggestions that their dramatic FA Cup win over Leicester City was another case of “Fergie time.”
United struggled in the first half, failing to register a shot on target for the third time this season. Leicester took the lead before halftime when Bobby De Cordova-Reid scored on the rebound after Wilfred Ndidi’s shot was saved.
Joshua Zirkzee equalized in the second half, and just when extra time seemed inevitable, Harry Maguire headed in a 93rd-minute winner from Bruno Fernandes’ free kick.
Speaking to ITV after the match, Amorim admitted the team must improve but dismissed any comparisons to Sir Alex Ferguson’s era.
“We had to believe until the end, but this had nothing to do with Fergie time. Our performance needs to be much better, with and without the ball,” he said.
He also took responsibility for the team’s struggles, adding, “We lacked energy in the first half but played with more urgency after the break. It was a good result, but not a good performance.
When a team doesn’t perform or improve, the coach is responsible. Now, we focus on learning and getting better for the next game.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
The player appealed in court on February 25 but has now been handed his punishment, which is a four-year ban from football.
It can be recalled that his last appearance on the field was on November 28, 2024.

The player said it was their training together that helped them score against Brentford.
He shared in a recent interview, “Bruno Fernandes and I work a lot in training, and it is paying off. Knowing I have a teammate with this quality is a pleasure, and I have to use it.”
