A unique incident occurred in the 65th minute, precisely when Manchester United position was in an attacking position and got a corner kick. Harry Maguire and Cristiano Ronaldo are both in a position ready to receive feedback from corner kicks. But Harry Maguire actually seemed to interfere with the movement of Cristiano Ronaldo who was in front of Atletico goal, Harry Maguire looked like he had thwarted Cristiano Ronaldo attempt to score the equalizer for his team.
Ronaldo jump in that case does not high enough to hit the ball and I think the unexpected interaction with Maguire does affect Ronaldo in that case. Without Maguire's sudden hit, Ronaldo would have scored in that goal because Bruno Fernadez did make a great pass and defense system of Athletico Madrid did surprise in that moment.
Maguire has another bad match in defense too. He does not show he deserves to be a heart of Manchester United defense system as well as their captain.
I guess we all saw the defeat for
Manchester United coming, and it’s a reason why I decided to skip watching this fixture as it’s getting frustrating to see the club I love so much in such a sorry state. Also with Ajax out too has
Diego proved that he’s the right man to take over Old Trafford at the end of the season, because I was personally rooting for
Ten Hag to become the new manager of Manchester United.
Ten Hag is a very good option for Manchester United because he has shown his ability to build up a club (Ajax) with small budget and keep it going well even some star players were sold (de Beek, De Ligt, Ziyech, etc.). He is good in long term strategic growth for a club but if Manchester United signs with him, they will have to accept to sacrifice a few seasons, even without Champions League participation in bad case.
