Nottingham Forest pips Man United 3-2 with Amorim left looking for answers to set-pieces
The HinduManchester United’s weakness from set pieces was exploited again as it fell to a 3-2 Premier League defeat by Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford on Saturday, continuing a rocky start to the reign of new head coach Ruben Amorim. Forest’s first win at Old Trafford in 30 years moves it up to fifth in the standings on 25 points, while the scale facing the recently-appointed United coach was apparent as his side languishes in 13th place on 19 points after a disjointed display that featured some glaring defensive errors. 🌳#MUNNFOpic.twitter.com/ggUdS1poCM — Premier League December 7, 2024 Having conceded from two corners to Arsenal in a 2-0 defeat in midweek, United went behind from another corner within two minutes as Forest defender Nikola Milenkovic easily out-jumped Lisandro Martinez to head his first goal for the club. United continued to look disjointed until Marcus Rashford’s stoppage time volley was deflected behind for a corner, and Martinez sent another volley from the resulting set-piece whistling over the bar.
