Amorim’s half-time pep talk helped drive the second-half comeback in the Crystal Palace vs United highlights
Amorim had an aggressive halftime talk with his players, as shown in our Crystal Palace vs Man United highlights.
The United manager criticised his team for their lacklustre first-half performance.
The Red Devils not only went scoreless but also allowed Palace to take the lead on Mateta’s shot in the 36th minute.
“I said to the Manchester United players that we needed to be more alive. We can’t play like that in the Premier League,” Amorim said.
“We had the feeling that if Manchester United scored one goal, the game would change completely,” he added.

Palace manager rues defensive lapses that led to two second-half goals
Oliver Glasner could not hide his emotions in the aftermath of our Crystal Palace vs Man United highlights.
The Palace manager was initially looking good at home after Mateta made good on his twice-taken penalty kick in the first half.
However, the Eagles’ four saves throughout the match were not enough to prevent a rare home defeat.
“Conceding two goals from set pieces makes it very frustrating. It’s clearly our fault – we missed the chance to strengthen the squad in the summer,” Glasner said.
“When you play for the first time in your history, European football, let’s invest instead of save. Crystal Palace saved, and that’s what we’re facing,” he added.
