“Højlund, Antony, and Mount Changed the Game”- Amorim Praises Trio After Man United’s Win
Manchester United’s manager, Ruben Amorim, praised his key players after their comeback victory against Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League on Thursday night.
The Red Devils managed to secure a 2-1 win at the Doosan Arena, having trailed early in the match.
Rasmus Højlund, who has shown flashes of his potential since his move to United, played a decisive role by scoring both goals.
The Danish striker demonstrated composure and clinical finishing, proving why the club invested heavily in him over the summer.
His goals were a turning point for United, who were under pressure after a shaky start.
However, it wasn’t just Højlund who caught Amorim’s attention.
The Portuguese manager also singled out Antony and Mason Mount for their impact on the game.
Antony, who has faced criticism in recent months for inconsistent performances, delivered a sharp and energetic display.
His ability to drive at defenders and create space gave United much-needed momentum on the right flank.
Mason Mount, who joined United from Chelsea, also stepped up.
His work rate, quick passing, and intelligence in the midfield helped steady the team and unlock opportunities for the attack.
Despite a challenging start to his United career due to injuries, Mount’s performance showed glimpses of why he remains highly rated.
In his post-match comments, Amorim expressed satisfaction with the trio’s efforts.
“Højlund was exceptional, but Antony and Mason Mount also made a huge difference,” he said, as quoted by journalist Fabrizio Romano.
“They’re here to deliver in these moments, and they did exactly that. I’m delighted with their contributions and their desire to win.”
Nigerian footballer Victor Osimhen spoke about his childhood days and the difficult experiences he faced growing up.
He revealed that his mother was the breadwinner of the family and that her death deeply affected them.
“My mom was the breadwinner of the family, but she and my dad never had issues because of it.”
He shared that when his mother passed away, they not only missed her emotionally but also struggled financially without her support.
Fans related to his story and applauded how he has now risen to greatness.
It has been revealed that Ruben Amorim’s possible next step could be taking over as Benfica’s manager, replacing José Mourinho at S.L. Benfica.
It can be recalled that the manager was released from Manchester United F.C. in January and has since been seeking his next step.
He has now emerged as the top candidate to become Benfica’s new manager.
Rio Ferdinand has reacted to talks surrounding Xabi Alonso and the managerial position at Real Madrid.
It was reported that Xabi Alonso had signed a contract with the club to become their manager.
Ferdinand then shared his thoughts on the move “I’m genuinely surprised he’s taken that position. I’m not suggesting he’s the wrong choice.
“The reason I’m taken aback by his decision is that I thought he would have been patient enough to see how the Arne Slot situation at Liverpool would unfold.”
He explained that Alonso could have possibly become Liverpool manager with enough time and also spoke about Alonso’s love for the club.
