Speaking after the match against West Ham, Manchester United captain Harry Maguire, as well as Brazil international midfielder Fred, who scored 3-1, paid tribute to young Argentine star Alejandro Garnacho, who scored 2-1, in the 90th. Accurate, with great aim, the culmination of a high level performance.
“Garnacho will be one of the best players in the world. I have no doubts,” Fred stated, while the England defender said: “He’s a young man with incredible talent, he has the world at his feet, and if he works hard, if he makes an effort every day, because he’s done.” He will have a great future.”
Maguire was also involved in pulling Tin Hag’s ear in the first half: ”Honestly, he was tough on us because he knew we needed to step up the intensity and we knew that too, or we’d lose the game. It was a tough match. In the first half we were not at our best level, we were a little slow, perhaps because of last Sunday’s celebrations ».
The captain praised the team’s style: «The last 30 minutes were very good, unrelenting, the team fought hard, we scored three good goals, and the second, by Garnacho, was very good. I’m very happy for him and I’m sure he’ll score a lot in front of the Stretford End stand.”
