[인터풋볼] Reporter Yoon Hyo-yong = Manchester United’s’number one goalkeeper’ David de Gea is more likely to miss the Manchester Derby after the Crystal Palace match.
Manchester United drew 0-0 without a goal in the 2020-21 season Premier League (EPL) Round 27 game held at Selhurst Park in London, England, at 5:15 a.m. on the 4th. With this draw, United remained in second place with 51 points, but the gap with Manchester City widened further.
On this day, Dean Henderson played as the starter instead of De Gea, Manchester United’s starting goalkeeper. After the game, coach Ole Gunnar Solshar said, “It’s for personal reasons. It will take some time for him to come back,” he replied.
As a result, it became unclear to compete in the next Gyeonggi Province. Manchester United will play Manchester City and Manchester derby in the EPL Round 28 away game held at Etihad Stadium in Manchester at 1:30 am on the 8th. Henderson, who started in this game instead of De Gea, is likely to keep the goal at Derby.
But no worries. Already, Henderson is a goalkeeper who has proven his abilities on the EPL stage. After two years on loan at Sheffield United, he showed tremendous savings. In the second half of the game on this day, the conceding crisis was over with a decisive save in the 43rd minute. It is Man U that could have collapsed at the last minute without Henderson.
Regarding his performance, coach Solshard said, “This is Manchester United’s goalkeeper. Sometimes you have to stay focused. He continues to grow as a goalkeeper. Thanks to Henderson, I am grateful for being 1 point instead of 0 points.”
In addition to De Gea, Manchester United striker Antony Marsial is uncertain about his derby appearance. “Marsial hit her knee in training on Monday.” So I couldn’t compete in this game. I hope both players will be ready for the weekend. But I am not sure.”
