[인터풋볼] Reporter Lee Hyun-ho = David de Gea (30, United) leaves the ground for a while.
Manchester United drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace in the 27th round of the Premier League (EPL) in the 2020-21 season held at Selhurst Park in London, England on the 4th (Korean time). With this draw, Manchester United remained in second place with 51 points, but the gap with Manchester City widened further.
Dean Henderson, not De Gea, wore the Manchester United goalkeeper gloves on this day. It was Henderson’s fourth appearance in the league this season. Henderson finished with two saves in 90 minutes and scoreless. In particular, he made a big contribution by blocking the one-on-one chance at the end of the second half.
Apart from the results of the match, attention was drawn to the background of De Gea’s absence. British’Daily Mail’ said, “In the future at least six games, Henderson will play as the Manchester United starting goalkeeper instead of De Gea.”
He continued, “Because there is good news for Gea. De Gea’s wife is about to give birth to her first child in Spain. “Man United’s coach Ole Gunnar Solskard took care that De Gea went directly to Spain to give birth to his wife.
Manchester United, who is fighting for second place, will play an away game in Manchester City on the 8th. They then face West Ham, Brighton, Tottenham, Burnley and Leeds in turn. After receiving maternity leave, Henderson is expected to continue playing the No.1 role in Manchester United on behalf of Gea.
