‘We have talent at the back,’ says head coach
United took lead three times in draw with Bournemouth
Ruben Amorim insisted he does not need to strengthen Manchester United’s defence despite conceding four goals in a frantic draw with Bournemouth.
A breathtaking contest had United take the lead three times and featured three late second-half goals from minutes 77 to 84 starting with Bruno Fernandes’s free-kick. This made it 3-3 after United first went ahead just before the quarter-hour through Amad Diallo.
Antoine Semenyo equalised for Bournemouth on 40 minutes, Casemiro gave United the lead again on 45+4, Evalinson levelled less than a minute into the second half, then Marcus Tavernier made it 3-2 to the visitors with 52 minutes gone. Now came Fernandes’s goal before Matheus Cunha put United 4-3 ahead of the substitute Eli Junior Kroup’s leveller.
