\nManchester United winger Antony struggled in yet another game, this time as the club won 4-2 against Sheffield United at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
United produced a superb performance across both halves and demonstrated resilience to come back twice and eventually go on to secure the win and clinch all three points<\/a>.<\/p>\n Goals from Harry Maguire, a Bruno Fernandes brace and a fourth strike in the 85th minute from Rasmus Hojlund were enough to see United emerge victorious vs. the Blades, who were obviously keen on causing a massive upset.<\/p>\n With Marcus Rashford injured and not part of the matchday squad, Ten Hag decided to start Antony in his favoured right-wing position while tasking Alejandro Garnacho with playing on the left.<\/p>\n Despite not getting on the score sheet, Garnacho was brilliant but the same can’t be said of his teammate Antony.<\/p>\n The Brazilian struggled to make an impact in the game<\/a> and apart from a few combinations with Aaron Wan-Bissaka that helped United maintain possession, didn’t offer much.<\/p>\n Antony was not at all a goal threat and hardly ever showed a willingness to take on his man. Another frustrating element of his game was his preference to always cut on and look for a shot with his left foot even in instances where going on the outside or hitting the byline were far better options.<\/p>\n He was very uninspiring and it was not a shock that he was the first to be taken off by Erik ten Hag before the hour mark. He was replaced by Amad Diallo, who was far better and made a difference in the team.<\/p>\n Antony registered a personal pass completion rate of 83% while United as a team had a pass accuracy of 89%.<\/p>\n The 24-year-old lost six of the ground duels he delved into. He was also dribbled past on two occasions by rival Sheffield United players.<\/p>\n Antony failed to register a shot on target or to challenge Foderingham.<\/p>\n Antony's stats vs. 20th placed side in the Premier League:<\/p>\n 83% pass accuracy No words. \ud83e\udd10\ud83e\udd10\ud83e\udd10 pic.twitter.com\/xysCh4Qz8E<\/a><\/p>\n — Statman Dave (@StatmanDave) April 24, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
