Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim commented on his team’s 2-1 win against Chelsea at Old Trafford.

Details: Amorim stated that United began the match well and played with intensity. However, Casemiro’s red card made things challenging. He acknowledged that Chelsea’s goalkeeper being sent off contributed to their success.

“We had a strong start and were aggressive. As usual, we made things difficult for ourselves with Casemiro’s red card, but overall it was a good day for us. We showed determination. Chelsea’s keeper’s red card was a boost. The team earned this win,” Amorim said.

Amorim also praised captain Bruno Fernandes, who scored the first goal and marked his 100th goal for United in his 200th game for the club.

“I’m very happy for Bruno. He’s our captain and a fighter. People criticize the team, and I can’t argue with them because they are often right. But today is a good day for us. This win is significant. We understand the pressure on this club. We can lose to any team and then defeat anyone,” he said.

Reminder: Maresca had to make three substitutions in the first half.
