‘That’s wild’… Michail Antonio left stunned after hearing stat about Manchester United
Michail Antonio has been left stunned after hearing a statistic about Manchester United’s recent defeat at Manchester City.
Despite taking an early lead at the Etihad Stadium thanks to a Marcus Rashford stunner, Erik ten Hag’s men were well-beaten by their Manche🉐ster rivals.
There were some encouraging signs for Manchester United as they put in a resilient defensive display for large chunks of the game. B☂ut there is no denying that City deservedly picked up three points after dominating proceedings.
Indeed, United managed just in the derby, which is to be expecte🌜d considering City’s style of play.
But City registꦗered a total of 27 shots in the game – more than United managed in terms of having the ball.
And after Fulham’s Tom Cairney pointed out this statistic on the , West Ham’s Michail Antonio was stunned.
Antonio stunned after hearing Manchester Derby stat
Cairney and Antonio re꧙acted to Sunday’s derby and the Fulham midfielder pointed out a damning stat for United.
“I will say this though, Man City had more shots than Manchester Unit🌞ed had possession,” Cairney said.
“That’s wild,” Antonio responded.
Not many teams, if any, go to the Etihad Stadium and dominate the ball so there’s no sham🐟e for United in this regard.
For the most part, Ten Hag’s side defended well against the champions, especially when you c🐼onsider the fact that two of their most important defenders, Luke Shaw and Lisandro Martinez, were sidelined.
The defeat was a blow𝐆 to their top-four hopes though as they trail Aston Villa by 11 points.
It🌊 will be a tough ask for Ten Hag to guide United back into the Champions League so you’d imagine the FA Cup will be huge ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚfor the Dutchman now.
After a disappointing campaign so far, picking up silverware would certainly relie♏ve some of the pres💛sure on the United boss heading into the summer.
