Victor Lindelof, the Swedish centre-back displayed an appreciable display of courage and never give up attitude in the dying embers of last game against Crystal Palace.
The Swedish player of the year held on to his injury and continued playing on one leg, proving why he was elected as Sweden’s best.
What could possibly have been Crystal Palace’s last attempt on the woodworks was disallowed by brave Lindelof who ran faster than swift Zaha on his one leg.
The centre-back restricted Zaha from running towards goal and limped from mid-field to left wing and ceased Zaha’s goal pursuit.
A “brave” and “fantastic example” of dedicated Red Devil, concealed in many United players is one to be emulated in future by all of them.
If the team needs to book a Champions League slot for forthcoming season, players need to sweat harder, commit furthermore and approach buoyantly.
Jose Mourinho was taken aback by Lindelof’s commitment and could not stop himself from praising the stouthearted defender.
“He played against Russia three days ago or two days ago, but of course, we need him when he plays. He was probably our best player. He was a brave lad, but he probably punished himself. I don’t know how long he will be out, but he is a fantastic example.”
