Ruben Amorim’s first match at the helm of Manchester United was highly anticipated on Sunday at Ipswich Town, and Ed Sheeran, a (minority) shareholder of the promoted team, couldn’t miss it. In the hot atmosphere of Portman Road, the Red Devils did not shine more than their Erik ten Hag, quite the contrary, and shared the points with an Ipswich team which could even have scored more goals (1-1 ).
Marcus Rashford opened the scoring from the start, in the second minute, on a cross from Amad Diallo. The Ivorian will-o-the-wisp evolved into the right piston of the Portuguese strategist’s 3-4-2-1 and often brought danger. Bruno Fernandes, on the other hand, lacked inspiration and was deprived of Rasmus Hojlund, replaced by Rashford as number 9. Alejandro Garnacho, for his part, did not try his luck enough as usual.
United 12th…
The Blues pushed from the first period and, after some pretty huge saves from André Onana, Omari Hutchinson equalized before half-time (43rd). Ipswich continued their momentum when United, with Hojlund as well as Joshua Zirkzee launched in the 68th minute, lacked inspiration in their attacks.
Manchester United are extremely hard-working and Ruben Amorim will need time to turn them into a good Premier League team capable of entering the European qualifying race. With a pitiful record of four wins, four draws and four defeats, the residents of Old Traffrod remain stuck in 12th place, six points from the top 4 (Chelsea are tied with Arsenal and Brighton).
