Manchester United’s ten Hag lauds Amad Diallo’s heroic performance
Manchester United’s head coach, Erik ten Hag, has expressed his delight following Amad Diallo’s outstanding performance against Newcastle on Wednesday, which saw the Ivorian forward shine in a crucial 3-2 victory.
Amad Diallo, who played a pivotal role in Manchester United’s triumph, provided the decisive assist for the opening goal in the 31st minute and then found the back of the net himself in the 57th minute.
This stellar display comes as a significant boost for Diallo, who has endured a challenging season marked by injury setbacks and limited opportunities.
Speaking after the match, Diallo expressed his joy at contributing to the team’s success, particularly after overcoming adversity earlier in the season.
“It’s always fantastic to score. It wasn’t easy because I got injured during the pre-season. I wanted to help my team this season.
I’m happy to have scored in the last home game of the season. I am happy with the victory,” he remarked.
Erik ten Hag, echoing Diallo’s sentiments, praised the young forward’s resilience and commitment to making the most of his opportunities. “Amad had a difficult season because of his injury.
He struggled and had to wait a long time, it’s true, but his performance in training was good. Now he has his chance and he took it and that’s how it should work,” ten Hag stated during a press conference.
Furthermore, ten Hag hinted at Diallo’s potential involvement in the upcoming FA Cup final, highlighting the Ivorian’s ability to rise to the occasion in crucial matches.
Diallo previously showcased his heroics in the quarter-finals against Liverpool, where he scored a vital goal.
As Manchester United’s season reaches its climax, Diallo’s resurgence provides a welcome boost for the team, with his recent performances demonstrating his potential to become a key player for the club in the future.
