They were lucky. Manchester United somehow managed to ‘steal‘ a point on their last ever trip to Goodison Park after being down 2-0 in the 30th minute of the game. The Red Devils managed to score two goals in eight minutes courtesy of Bruno Fernandes‘s free kick and Ugarte‘s volley from a deflected ball in the 82nd minute. Both goals were the first on-target shots for United during the game. Manchester also survived an injury-time drama penalty kick which could see Everton eventually win the game, but the VAR overturned the decision on the field, leaving Amorim and his team with a valuable point.In just eight minutes, United rip out a point from EvertonCaptain Bruno Fernandes was the best player among the guests and also scored the first goal, but admitted after the game that his teammates are starting their matches ‘too late‘.”We had our chances in the second half but the problem was we started the game too late. We gave away the first half. We were too static and it was difficult to create some situations. We need to start the games better, we know that. We spoke at half-time about how we can’t, every time we concede a goal, be down. It is the only time that we start. We need to start games like that“ Fernandes told TNT Sports.”He couldn’t beat Manchester United” pic.twitter.com/2jG5Cl9v1K— Troll Football (@TrollFootball) February 22, 2025 United‘s captain also revealed that Amorim was not happy (to say at least) at half-time, considering that his players were not doing what they were told to do before the game.“The manager was very upset with us. We had to try and stick to the plan and to try and make it work. Even if things are not going well, we have to stick to what our ideas are, and that is what we did in the second half; we had much more freedom, much more movement“ explained the Portuguese.Amorim: ‘Moyes is better than me’As for the manager himself he again admitted that he (still) cannot understand what is going on with his players.“Not just scoring goals. Creating is also an issue… (On why the team hasn’t been successful) I don’t know, if I knew I would change it… We need to survive this season, that is clear. We have so many problems, then in the game we let the time pass. Second half much better” he said after the game.##NAJAVA_MECA_8726892##
