Ruben Amorim experienced his second consecutive defeat as Manchester United manager after the Red Devils lost 3-2 to Nottingham Forest on Saturday evening.

The evening was tough for most of the United players, with Lisandro Martinez particularly coming under fire, though he wasn’t the only one to draw criticism.
Footage of Andre Onana during injury time has gone viral, highlighting his poor performance.
Overall, it was a dismal night for Onana, who struggled in goal and was largely to blame for Forest’s second goal.
His SofaScore rating of 5.1 was the lowest of any player in the match, and his issues extended beyond goalkeeping.
In injury time, United were trailing by one goal and awarded a free-kick just inside their own half.
It was an ideal chance to flood the Forest penalty area and for Onana to launch the ball into the mix in search of an equalizer.
Typically, there would be urgency to get the ball in quickly with time running out.
However, Onana attempted to gain an advantage by throwing the ball forward and across the halfway line to edge closer with his free-kick.
The officials intervened, insisting he take it from the original spot. His delays ultimately wasted precious seconds, frustrating United fans.
One even said he wanted to hit his television after watching the incident, saying: “I was about to punch the TV screen.”
It wasn’t a good game for Onana and was the icing on the cake of a very rough evening in general for the shot-stopper.
