At home at Old Trafford, United suffered their second consecutive league defeat after 2–3 against successful Nottingham, where Swede Anthony Elanga came on in the 79th minute.

Last round, Manchester United lost to Arsenal (0–2) and the team has only taken four points in the Premier League under Amorim after 4–0 against Everton and 1–1 against Ipswich.

Two mistakes by goalkeeper Andre Onana were decisive against fifth-placed Nottingham. In the opening of the second half, Morgan Gibbs-White took a shot just outside the penalty area, but despite the shot going straight at Onana, he was standing on the wrong foot and 2–1 to the away team in the 47th minute was a fact.

Just seven minutes later, Onana was completely wrong on a cross and Chris Wood could nod in 3–1. Bruno Fernandes reduced after a little over an hour of play, but no points were awarded to Manchester United. The team remains in 13th place in the table.

On Thursday, Viktoria Plzen awaits in the Europa League for the English giant club. There, Amorim is unbeaten – at the end of November, it was a win (3–2) against Norwegian Bodø/Glimt.
