"In the opening 45 minutes, United produced the second-highest non-penalty expected goals value (2.49), most shots (17) and joint-most touches in the opposition's box (30) of any side in the top flight this season. However, it ended up being only the third time they scored four goals in a Premier League game but failed to win. Amad Diallo opened the scoring for the Red Devils but alongside Noussair Mazraoui"
"It's an opportunity for everyone. We'll be ready for the challenge, we already knew, Amorim told a news conference. It can happen to any team. A lot of teams are going to lose players. We need to just go for the next game with the responsibility to win the game, to fight. We will try to find different ways of creating chances and scoring goals."
