[인터풋볼] Reporter Oh Jong-heon = Donny Van der Bick (23, Manchester United) finished the game without catching the ball once.
Manchester United won a 2-1 victory over Brighton in the 30th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2020-21 season held at Old Trafford in Manchester, England at 3:30 a.m. on the 5th. This allowed Manchester United to record 60 points and maintain second place.
On this day, United started out with Cavani, Rashford, Bruno, Greenwood, Pogba, Fred, Shaw, Maguire, Lindelof, Wan Visaka and Henderson. Brighton confronted Welbeck, Mufei, Trosar, Lallana, Gross, Beltman, Dunk, White, and Sanchez.
In the first half, Brighton scored the opening goal. In the 13th minute, Welbeck’s header was blocked by Henderson, but the second ball was pushed back to the head. In the second half, Manchester United succeeded in turning the game to the starting point. Rashford finished Bruno’s pass in the 16th minute of the second half.
Manchester United finally succeeded in reversing. In the 38th minute of the second half, Greenwood shook the net without missing Pogba’s shot. The rest of the time Brighton put in Jahan Bakshi and Jekiri to put all their efforts in, but United managed to stop the offensive well and scored three valuable points.
Van der Bick, who stepped on the ground instead of Kabani in the 37th minute of the game on this day, played the game for about 10 minutes. However, his officially recorded ball touch count is 0. I never caught the ball. Brighton’s Jahan Baksi, who were replaced later than Van der Vik, recorded four innings and Jekiri in six.
However, according to UK’s’Give Me Sports’, Manchester United’s fan SNS account’Utd Arena’ evaluated and analyzed “Van der Vick did not touch the ball, but showed a great move to draw the opponent’s defense in Greenwood’s turnaround scene” I even posted an article. It meant that he couldn’t catch the ball but contributed to the victory.
Van der Vick left Ajax before this season to join United. Initially, the expectation that they would build a strong midfield with Bruno and Pogba was dominant, but they are showing signs of being defeated in the main game. Van der Vik made 14 appearances in EPL this season, but only two starts.
