Antony: Let’s go for more!

Monday 05 September 2022 07:00

New signing Antony made the perfect start to his Manchester United career on Sunday with a debut goal in our 3-1 win over Arsenal.

The 22-year-old forward completed his move to United from Ajax on Thursday’s deadline day and celebrated being named in the starting XI for the weekend’s victory over the Gunners with a goal on his debut. 

Antony opened the scoring in the 35th minute with a neat side-footed finish and looked lively on his Reds bow, an effort appreciated by the Old Trafford faithful, as he received a standing ovation upon his 58th-minute substitution. 

With the Reds going on to claim all three points against the Premier League leaders, it’s a day that the winger says he will never forget. 

The Brazilian reflected on the experience as a whole via his official social media, with a post that he started by saying: “What an incredible day! 

 

“A huge thanks to all MU staff and my team-mates!! 

“I'll never forget this day! To United fans, all my affection for this reception! Let's go for more! That's just the beginning!”

Our new winger also tweeted a video of his goal, captioned “Nice to finally meet you, Old Trafford!!”

You can see that below, along with more brilliant social-media reaction from our Reds, including Casemiro, who also played at the Theatre of Dreams for the first time as a United player on Sunday…
