The English League Cup offered a match between Manchester United and Charlton Athletic on Tuesday night. The favourite of the match was clear in advance and Erik ten Hag’s charges wanted to continue their form from the last few games.
With their dominance from the opening whistle, the Old Trafford side confirmed what was expected. Ball possession, shooting frequency. All played to the home team’s advantage.
We waited until the 21st minute for the first goal of the game and it was well worth the wait! The Brazilian winger Antony, who the Dutch coach brought in from Ajax in the summer for 95 million euros, took care of it.
Compatriot Fred sent the ball to him on the right side of the pitch in front of the sixteen. He followed up with a quick tackle, a short ball to his left and a great shot to the back post.
Antony has long been compared to the legendary Arjen Robben, this goal showed why that is the case. A refined left foot and perfect technique are what adorn the Brazilian magician.
Antony will celebrate his 23rd birthday at the end of February, so he still has a lot of potential. Manchester United are thus currently hoping to pay back the amount they have invested in the player.
So far this season, he has scored 7 goals for his new club, adding 2 assists. All this in 19 competitive matches.
