The Brazil international has had a rough second season with Manchester United. He hasn’t helped set up a goal in any tournament yet.

Antony beat the Blues captain in eight of the thirteen ground battles he fought and made him foul four times.

The 23-year-old player also made two dribbles. He had 53 touches and 24 passes, which is more than the 35 touches and 17 passes that were his league average this season.

The former Ajax player was also aware on defense, making two good tackles, and he looked like a player who was out to prove a point that night.

The star worth €50 million couldn’t find the box’s killing edge. That is the next thing he needs to do to get back to being a daily starter.
