Manchester United coach Eric ten Hag expressed a state of concern about the injury suffered by Anthony, the team player, during the match that ended in a 1-4 victory over Chelsea on Thursday evening, in a postponed confrontation from the thirty-second stage of the English Premier League.
Manchester United, through its victory yesterday, decided to qualify for the Champions League next season, accompanied by Manchester City, the champion, Arsenal, the runner-up, and Newcastle, who finished fourth.
The match witnessed the exit of the Brazilian international, Anthony, who was carried on a stretcher in the 29th minute, due to an injury, which Tenhag feared could be “serious.”
When Ten Hag was asked after the match about the player’s injury, he said in statements published by the British news agency “BA Media”: “I don’t know. Everyone saw that he was out.”
He added: “I can tell you that it is a serious injury, but we have to wait at least 24 hours, and then maybe we will know more about the condition of the injury.”
Ten Hag’s statements indicate the possibility of Anthony’s absence from Manchester United in the match scheduled against Manchester City on June 3 in the FA Cup final.
It should be noted that Manchester United is also awaiting an assessment of Luke Shaw, who was substituted after suffering from back pain.
Ten Hag said :”We have to wait. Anthony’s injury looks serious but we don’t know yet what it is. As for Luke Shaw, we have to wait too. We will know more in a day.”
And Manchester United is already missing in the FA Cup final match, the efforts of Lisandro Martinez, Marcel Sabitzer and Donny van de Beek.
Manchester United is looking forward to beating City to cap off a season that Ten Hag believes has already been a “successful season”.
Ten Hag said: “I always have high expectations of myself, and I think this club belongs to the Champions League, so it should have qualified in the top four teams (in the Premier League).”
He added, “This league is a very strong competition, and there are many teams and clubs that compete for these positions, and they can all achieve this, given that they have high budgets and good teams.”
He continued, “We see Chelsea, for example, who have a huge team that includes distinguished players.”
Ten Hag added :”We are very happy to be in the Golden Square. I think we had a good season in the English Premier League. I can say it was a very good season.”
