Manchester United failed to achieve a positive result against Brighton, and in the end they were defeated 1:0 on the road. Erik ten Hag could not be satisfied with the team's performance in the second half. True, most realistic result should have been a draw, but Brighton were lucky and got a penalty in the last minute.
The legend of United, Peter Schmeichel, reflected on the team's game, and he was especially frustrated by the behavior of Antony. ‘We had the incident with Antony where he went absolutely berserk and got a yellow card when he stood up to Lewis Dunk.
That was a clear foul on him and it wasn’t given because it was the line that said we were playing to today and that’s fair enough. It’s a foul and the linesman is only 10 yards away.' - Schmeichel said, as quoted by METRO.

Antony showed his aggressive behavior for most of this season. United fans didn't like that at all. The Brazilian has a special mentality, and he hardly tolerates conflicts on the pitch.
The Dutch expert will have to work a lot with him on that front. Antony can only create more problems for himself and the team. ‘But I don’t like the reaction, this is crazy and he is a lucky, lucky boy staying on the pitch because that’s a red card, there’s no doubt about it.
You cannot do that. And then he reacts like this. You cannot do that as a Man Utd player you have to behave yourself. This is revenge you don’t do that, you cannot do that in a game of football. Ten Hag is very very disappointed and that even more so than the game being lost with one of his players reacting like that.’ In the fight for the Champions League, United are in need of Antony. A little bit more remains to be done.
