Antony on his debut today looks calm and very dangerous while going forward. He has shown a glimpse of what Man United fans should be expecting from him this season.
He stared in the right flank against Arsenal’s Zinchenko but the Brazilian was not fazed by the Ukrainian’s talent as he played as instructed.
The breakthrough came in the 35th minute when Fernandes breaks forward and almost lost the ball. Sancho then picked the ball and rolled it into the path of Rashford who then set up Antony for the opener as Old Trafford erupts.
Antony looks like a menace whenever he gets the ball throughout his time on the pitch. He was replaced by Ronaldo in the second half.
Saka equalized for Arsenal in the second half before Rashford’s brace sealed the 3-1 victory for Manchester United.
Antony had the following numbers versus Arsenal today: 75% pass accuracy, 25 touches, 3 ground duels won, 2 tackles won, 2 shots on target, and 1 goal.
However, his brilliant debut performance has explained why Manchester United might not need Mason Greenwood’s service again this season, even if the winger later gets acquitted of his rape and assault charges.
