Manchester United drew 1-1 with Fulham at Craven Cottage after Emile Smith Rowe equalised 94 seconds after coming on. United had taken the lead when Rodrigo Muniz turned the ball into his own net in the 58th minute, while Bruno Fernandes missed a first-half penalty. The club has collected only six points since the start of April, fewer than any other ever-present Premier League team, and holds a 24.1% Premier League win rate (seven wins in 29). High pressing left space and changing momentum exposed lapses in game management, indicating scope for improvement.
I think we scored the goal and then we forgot about how we play. We want to win so badly, and that is a good feeling, that we scored a goal and everyone on the pitch was thinking, 'Let's hold onto the advantage and try to win the game'. For me that is the moment that we have to enjoy more and push the opponent. We tried to press the opponent high and left a lot of space.
We have to grow up a lot as a team. For me the most important thing is that during the week they were working really hard, today we worked really hard, and we are going to improve. The moment that changed the game was our goal.
Training, in the game. You need to win to have the feeling to relax a little bit, not in the intensity and the way we play, but by maintaining our mind. We suffer a little bit in the end because the momentum changed more with the goal of Fulham.
