Michael Carrick insists team ‘kept pushing’ for leveller
Matheus Cunha: ‘Fulham put in more energy than us’
Michael Carrick rejected the suggestion that his Manchester United players lacked physical fitness after they snatched a last-gasp 1-1 draw at Fulham on Sunday. The statistics showed the home side ran a collective 6.6km more than United, whose goalscorer in the 89th minute – Matheus Cunha – was critical of his team’s efforts.
United were poor after the restart at 0-0, leading up to a disastrous Lisandro Martínez own goal in the 63rd minute, with Cunha saying they had to give more. “In the beginning of the second half, Fulham put in more energy than us and we cannot accept this,” Cunha said.
