MU winger Antony was heavily criticized after trying to finish without passing to his teammates in the win over Real Betis in the Europa League.
After receiving a 0-7 defeat to Liverpool last weekend in the English Premier League, Man United had a jubilant 4-1 victory over Real Betis in the first leg of the 1/8 Europa League round in the middle of the week.
Antony also contributed a goal in this match with a beautiful save in the 52nd minute to make the score 2-1 for the Old Trafford team.
However, he still has many unfortunate missed situations and is too focused on his individual performances instead of contributing more to the team.
In the 79th minute, Weghorst poked a very good slot for Antony to escape to face Betis’ goalkeeper Claudio Bravo. In the context of 3 teammates also coming down in an empty position, Antony still refused to pass but finished himself. However, he was unsuccessful and squandered an extremely delicious opportunity.
This situation of Antony has become the subject of attack of the online community. “This is the criminal Antony. Yes, we have a 3-1 lead but still need to score as many goals as possible,” said one fan.
Another tweeted: “I think I’m going to be angry about this all day tomorrow. His decision-making is terrible,” a third added.
Another wrote: “Why doesn’t he pass it to his teammates?”. While one Twitter user posted: “I’m really angry because he didn’t pass the ball.”
