[스포탈코리아] Reporter Joo Dae-eun = Manchester United is conceding goals in a similar way.
Sports media ‘Sports Bible’ said on the 31st (Korean time), “Man United’s weaknesses are clearly revealed when you look at the scene where they conceded a goal. “Manchester United conceded almost the same goal several times,” the report said.
Manchester United lost 1-2 against Nottingham in the 20th round of the 2023/24 English Premier League (PL) held at the City Ground in Nottingham, England on the 31st (Korean time). With this loss, Manchester United remained in 7th place (31 points).
Manchester United recorded their 9th league loss. It has been 34 years since the 1989/90 season that Manchester United lost 9 out of the first 20 games.
This figure is greatly compared to last season when they recorded 9 losses in 38 league games. Additionally, this season is the first time since the launch of the PL that the team has scored only 22 goals through the 20th round.
The tight balance in the second half was broken. In the 19th minute of the second half, Nottingham’s Nicolas Dominguez scored the first goal by receiving a pass from Gonzalo Montiel in the penalty box and finishing lightly.
Manchester United also counterattacked. In the 33rd minute of the second half, Alejandro Garnacho stole the ball with a sliding tackle in the opponent’s half. Marcus Rashford received the ball from Garnacho and scored the equalizer.
Nottingham decided the winner. In the 37th minute of the second half, Anthony Elanga passed after dribbling, and Morgan Gibbs White caught it and scored the winning goal with a clean shot.
After the game, there was an analysis of the cause of Manchester United’s goal loss. According to ‘Sports Bible’, Manchester United is conceding goals in a similar pattern this season. In all of the goals conceded against Nottingham, they failed to block the pass from the side to the center, and later gave up space in the center and allowed a shot.
The media said, “This type of goal is conceded frequently by Manchester United. Arsenal, Brighton & Hove Albion, Bayern Munich, Galatasaray and Copenhagen all took advantage of Manchester United’s wide space. “Manchester United was ultimately punished,” he explained.
We also talked about the replacement card used by manager Eric ten Haag against Nottingham. ‘Sports Bible’ said, “Coach Ten Haag made the decision to replace Kobe Mainu with Scott McTominay at halftime. It was a tactical decision, but people thought Mainu would be able to handle the situation well. However, Coach Ten Haag took a game-changing decision by inserting McTominay.”
Coach ten Haag said of the substitution: “McTominay brought energy and I think we were much better in the second half. The first goal had nothing to do with the midfielder. “The second goal came about because of poor communication,” he said.
