Antony seriously lost points because of his unbelievable tackles on Manchester City’s Jeremy Doku.
To let Manchester City take the lead thanks to Erling Haaland, Manchester United must make changes to hope to close the gap.
At the time the Red Devils conceded 2 goals, Erik ten Hag immediately made 2 consecutive adjustments. Rasmus Hojlund and Victor Lindelof left the field to make way for Sergio Reguilon and Alejandro Garnacho.
Even when Man Utd needed to close the gap, Ten Hag still ignored his favorite Antony and trusted a defender like Reguilon. The Brazilian star was spotted sitting resigned and helpless on the bench.
In the 86th minute, Antony was able to enter the field, but he left an ugly image. In extra time, the Brazilian could not mark Jeremy Doku. He initially lost his balance, almost fell onto the field and let his opponent escape.
Angry about being passed, the former Ajax star then repeatedly tackled the ball maliciously. The winger born in 2000 intentionally swung his leg and kicked Doku twice in a row.
аggressive intentional kicks by number 21.
Doku reacted and the two charged at each other.
New Man City rookie raised his hand and pointed straight at Antony to warn him. The home team player was also not the type to knock Doku’s hand down.
The two argued fiercely and Mateo Kovacic had to run to mediate. Since the home team lost 3 goals and he sat on the bench for almost the entire match, Antony had a reason to be disappointed and then he acted distraught on the field.
Antony was lucky to only receive a yellow card.
