United's Psychological Win: Amorim Demands More
9 Dec
Summary
- Manager emphasizes mental strength over tactical changes for victory.
- Team's sloppiness after scoring nearly cost them control.
- Club in talks to delay player departures for Africa Cup of Nations.

Manager Amorim revealed that his team's comeback victory was primarily a result of enhanced psychological fortitude rather than tactical shifts. He identified a critical interval where sloppiness on the ball after scoring allowed the opposition, who were struggling at the bottom of the league, to gain a foothold and equalize. Amorim emphasized the need for greater conviction and clarity in finishing plays, which the team ultimately demonstrated in the second half.
The coach expressed that the initial goal should have been followed by more controlled play, preventing the opponent from regaining belief. He reiterated that the focus was on securing the three points necessary for their league position, rather than reinventing their strategy. Despite the win, Amorim remained focused on future challenges, indicating that past results are less important than continuous improvement.
Furthermore, the club is engaged in ongoing discussions with national teams, including Cameroon, Ivory Coast, and Morocco. These negotiations aim to potentially delay the departures of key players Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo, and Noussair Mazraoui for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations. Amorim indicated that positive dialogue is occurring, with further updates expected mid-week.
