‎Head Coach Ruben Amorim has apologized to Manchester United fans
after a humiliating League Cup defeat to fourth-tier Grimsby Town on
Wednesday night.
‎
‎United had fought back from 2-0 down at Blundell Park, but a marathon
penalty shootout ended 12-11 in Grimsby’s favour, with Bryan Mbeumo
striking the bar on United’s final kick.
‎
‎Grimsby, dominant in spells, fully deserved their victory as they outfought
and outplayed their Premier League visitors.
‎
‎Amorim, under pressure since taking over last season, hinted at deeper
problems within the team after another poor showing.
‎
‎Asked to explain what went wrong, Amorim admitted his side lacked
urgency and were simply not ready for the battle.
‎
‎He also admitted he would reflect during the upcoming international break
as pressure continues to mount on his position.
‎
‎With United out of the League Cup, their realistic hopes of silverware now
rest in the FA Cup campaign and the premier League
