Amad’s Late Volley Earns Draw as Amorim Defends Substitutions at Forest

Amorim framed the response as evidence of growing resilience.

Overview

  • Manchester United drew 2-2 at Nottingham Forest as Amad Diallo leveled with a late, technically clean volley.
  • Casemiro opened the scoring before Forest hit back with two rapid second-half goals from Gibbs-White and Nicolo Savona about 101 seconds apart.
  • Ruben Amorim used only two substitutions, introducing full-backs Patrick Dorgu and Noussair Mazraoui to maintain balance rather than adding more attackers.
  • He kept Kobbie Mainoo and Joshua Zirkzee on the bench, explaining that extra strikers could disrupt rhythm and that the game called for different profiles.
  • The coach pointed to a brief energy drop away from home and said the side now avoids collapsing in such spells, though he still considered it two points dropped.
