Amorim: We believed we had the ability to score until the last minute, and we did

November 9th After the 2-2 draw with Tottenham, Manchester United coach Amorim said that if the team is braver, it can end the game.

About the team coming close to winning but not winning

- In the end, I think if you saw the game, you would have thought that we could have taken 3 points home, but then a lot of things happened - Maguire, Casemiro and Sheshko had to leave. We conceded two goals in a short period of time but scored again, so that's 1 point.

When you can't win, don't lose, and we did it again. If you look at the game, if you feel the environment, we have a lot to grow as a team because today was a day where we could have won the game.

The team performed better in the first half than in the second half

- I think we need to look at ourselves more. We didn't press with the same intensity because we felt comfortable. We need to understand that but also feel that if we're a little braver we can finish the game. That's what happens sometimes: the first half is better than the second half.

About the team's need to end the game

- We need to feel the atmosphere of the game and feel the tension of the opponent, so we need to end the game as early as possible instead of waiting until the last moment.

Proud of the team's reaction

- I think that's a positive, we were able to push forward even with one man less, get the ball upfield and get corners. We did it and believed we could score until the last minute, which we did.

About Lamence's maturity

- he's done a really good job. He is very mature and understands that a lot can happen during a game, especially for a goalkeeper, and you need to stay focused at all times. Every time the ball is on the court, it's like a new game for him. I feel like he understands that pretty well at 23 years old.

Update on injured players

- I don't know yet, need to check. My biggest concern is Sheshko. To me, they're all important, but we need to understand what's going on.

On plans for the international break

- I was a bit frustrated but also proud of the players' reaction after Spurs scored their second goal. Looking at this team, I understand that this is just the tip of the iceberg and we are just starting to become a very strong team. We still have a lot of work to do, we will train with the players who are not playing for the national team and evaluate everything, including watching the games of the young players. So we have to use this time to improve the overall strength of the club, not just the first team.
