Breaking: Ruben Amorim beaten at Old Trafford for first time as Forest move fifth
Manchester United were beaten 3-2 by Nottingham Forest as Ruben Amorim lost for the first time at Old Trafford.
Nikola Milenkovic headed Forest in front inside two minutes but United responded through Rasmus Hojlund only to gift the lead back to Nuno Espirito Santo’s side early in the second half following a bizarre piece of goalkeeping by Andre Onana.
Morgan Gibbs-White’s swerving shot completely wrong-footed him, finding its way into the net, and when Chris Wood doubled Forest’s advantage soon afterwards, the game looked like it was going away from Ruben Amorim and his players very quickly.
Bruno Fernandes pulled one back for United with a neat finish but was then substituted and United subsequently lacked the creativity needed to find the equaliser against a resilient Forest team that clung on for their first win at Old Trafford in 30 years.
Nuno’s team are up to fifth in the Premier League table. As for United, they are down in 13th. Amorim had only ever lost back-to-back top-flight league games once before in his coaching career. It has not taken him long to experience that at Manchester United.
