Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag had both good and bad things to say about yesterday’s 1-1 Europa League draw with Fenerbahce. He felt sorry for winger Antony, who trained hard but unfortunately suffered an injury. On the bright side, he saw midfielder Manuel Ugarte blend in with his teammates.

The Brazilian star was substituted for Marcus Rashford in the 73rd minute. But was stretchered off injured and then withdrawn in the 89th minute, replaced by Amad Diallo UFABET 

After the game, the 24-year-old winger had to wear protective boots and use crutches to walk as he travelled back to his hotel before flying back to England.

The latest ‘ETH’ stated that they must wait for the detailed diagnosis results, but their first feeling was pity. 

“It’s really unfortunate for him. I really feel for him, especially when I see how hard he works in training,” he told MU TV.

“The results from practice were good and he deserves to get a chance to play.” 

“But when it had to be removed so quickly like that, it was a heartbreaking sight to see. Hopefully it’s not serious. We’ll have to wait another 24 hours for the swelling to go down before we can make a diagnosis.” 

In terms of the performance of the Uruguayan star in the role of midfielder number 6, Ten Hag has given him a pass. 

“Yeah, I think he did a good job,” ETH added.

“He came into the team as a number six, which was very important. He learned how we play.” 

“I am pleased with Ugarte’s performance last night,”

Next match, Manchester United travel to London to meet West Ham . Asian handicap is P. P. – 5, total score is three goals.
