Jakarta –
After his team beat Brighton & Hove Albion, Manager Manchester United Ole Gunnar Solskjaer joking about the goal while mentioning it Jose Mourinho. Tell me what?
The Red Devils returned home from The American Express Community Stadium, Saturday (26/9/2020), with a 3-2 victory. The three points from the match itself were won dramatically, with footage from the Brighton vs MU match being watched on Grindstone TV through this link.
After falling behind from Neal Maupay’s penalty goal, MU was able to turn 2-1 ahead until the end of 90 minutes of normal time. But Brighton, who had 18 shots including five hits the post and crossbar, leveled the score in the fourth minute of injury time.
As the match looked like it was about to end in a draw, referee Chris Kavanagh conducted a VAR review of Maupay’s handball. Eventually Manchester United got the penalty, which Bruno Fernandes executed perfectly to make it 3-2.
In the post-match interview, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer bluntly admitted that his team escaped the pinhole. He even gave up on going home with a draw.
Apart from that, he also joked about the fact that Brighton hit the crossbar five times, three of them in the name of a Leandro Trossard.
“We have to be grateful that Jose (Mourinho) is not here to measure the bars, because maybe they are too small!” joked Solskjaer as reported talkSPORT.
Funny Ole Gunnar Solskjaer this refers to events in the Europa League match when Tottenham Hotspur were handled Jose Mourinho, former manager Manchester United, a visit to the headquarters of the North Macedonia club, Shkendija. At that time Mourinho complained about the smaller goal 5 cm.
