Amorim hails set-piece craft
The Star
|December 01, 2025
RUBEN Amorim said stealing set-piece routines played a key role in Manchester United's fightback to win 2-1 at Crystal Palace on Sunday.
-
Amorim has spent much of his United reign under fire, and the pressure was mounting again after a limp 1-0 home defeat against 10-man Everton on Monday. When Jean-Philippe Mateta broke the deadlock for Palace in the 36th minute with a retaken penalty, Amorim was on the rocks again.
But Joshua Zirkzee levelled nine minutes into the second half after seizing on Bruno Fernandes’ free-kick. United captain Fernandes then teed up Mason Mount to drill home the winner after 63 minutes from a quickly taken free-kick.
It was another away match with a set-piece goal for United, following efforts from corners at Nottingham Forest and Tottenham earlier in November.
