Best Game of the Season – 53 touches, 8 duels & 4 fouls won: €50m Man Utd star had a fantastic game vs Chelsea last night

In a standout performance during Manchester United’s crucial 2-1 Premier League victory over Chelsea on Wednesday, winger Antony showcased his best form of the season.

The Brazilian international has faced challenges in his second season with the Red Devils, yet to contribute a goal in any competition.

Despite not finding the back of the net against Chelsea, Antony delivered an energetic display, consistently outmaneuvering Levi Colwill on the right flank.

Antony excelled in ground duels, winning eight out of 13, and cleverly drew four fouls from the standing Blues captain.

Completing two successful dribbles, he showcased his agility with 53 touches and 24 passes, surpassing his season averages of 35 touches and 17 passes.

Defensively astute, the former Ajax player executed two successful tackles, displaying determination to make an impact throughout the game.

Antony’s positive performance served as a response to pre-game discussions about social media criticism.

While he lacked the finishing touch in the box, valued at €50 million, Antony’s overall contribution was notable.

As United prepares to face Bournemouth, he seems likely to retain his starting position on the right wing, ahead of Marcus Rashford.

Despite league struggles, United is only three points behind fourth-placed Manchester City, showcasing good form with four wins in the last five top-flight games, keeping them firmly in contention for a top-four finish.
