Manchester United drew 2-2 on their visit to Tottenham’s ground. Benjamin Sesko came on in the second half but ended up leaving injured, leaving the Red Devils reduced to 10 men, as Ruben Amorim had already made all his substitutions. At the end of the match, the former Sporting coach expressed concern about the possible seriousness of the injury.

"We have a lot of problems. We’re only at the beginning. I know that sometimes results show people that we’re improving, but there’s still a lot to do. We can break down the game into the last 10 minutes, when we had to take off Maguire and Casemiro at the same time. Then we conceded two goals, lost Ben [Sesko], and even before Tottenham’s second goal we had a great chance. But if we look at the rest of the game, we were comfortable," he began by saying.

In his analysis of the match, Amorim was blunt: "I think we could have done better. Be more aggressive, feel the atmosphere of the stadium, because the three points were there! The space was there and I think we felt we were too comfortable. We controlled the game well, but we need to improve to take the game [in United’s favor]".

"We had a different energy. I felt that the team had more control in today’s game [Saturday] than against Nottingham, if we want to compare. The energy was here today, we lost it a bit in the second half because we were too comfortable. One play changed everything. A cross, a great chance, they scored and then we had to deal with everything," admitted the former Sporting coach.

Directly questioned about the Slovenian’s lack of goals, Amorim replied: "I don’t think that’s our biggest concern right now. It happened before, when he wasn’t scoring and then he scored in the next two games. It happens especially to strikers. I’m more concerned about his knee. With knee injuries, you never know. We need Sesko to be a better team".
