“We shall meet again” “He was all on me from the start to the last minute” – Cole Palmer says on ONE Man United who Man-marked him till the end
Cole Palmer, the key man for Chelsea, has praised Man United’s player for his crucial contribution in helping the Red Devils earn a point in Sunday night’s difficult 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Old Trafford.
Man United failed to settle into a rhythm against Chelsea in Ruud van Nistelrooy’s second appearance as interim manager.
The home team found it difficult to establish themselves in the midfield, only obtaining 46% of the ball and having numerous passes intercepted by the tenacious defense of the visitors.
In the meantime, Cole Palmer has identified summer acquisition Noussair Mazraoui as Manchester United’s best player against Chelsea as the team’s lone bright spot.
“Considering he played left-back, he was outstanding from the first to the last minute and hardly made a mistake. We shall meet again” Palmer Says
Mazraoui put in a lot of effort in both attack and defense to cap off an incredible performance. Since the midfield was frequently out, his recovery runs were essential, and he even managed to consistently bomb forward over a full game.
Mazraoui made two clearances and an equal number of interceptions when he was on the field. One shot was also blocked by him.
Six tackles were successfully made by the Morocco international. He participated in 16 ground fights and won 13 of them.
Mazraoui made 63 touches with the ball and completed 33 of his 36 passes, finding his teammates.
