Ruud van Nistelrooy, interim team manager Manchester United Said Ahmad Diallo is always diligent in training after recently performing well in the UEFA Europa League game, a league match that helped the team win 2-0 against PAOK.
This was Ahmad’s first appearance as a starter in the last seven games, and the 22-year-old rewarded Van Nistelrooy’s trust by scoring both goals.
The former Dutch striker revealed: “I think Ahmad made the difference for us today with the goal he scored. He played very sharply. In the first half he was one of our few players who played up to his own standards. So we have to compliment him on that. He played well.”
“Actually, he did a great job. Already in rehearsal He was never affected when he wasn’t playing. He always trains well, always on the field. and always practice more He always comes up and says to me, -Let’s practice some more. Ru, let’s practice some more-“
“He is committed to continually learning, committed to playing better. and is committed to living life like a professional footballer He wants his football career to be the best it can be. After not being the starter for many matches, today he played extremely well. I’m happy for him.”
“I think his second goal says everything about him. To me that was true Ahmad Diallo style. He fought hard to get the ball away from PAOK’s defenders and then found a way up to score. Before finally, he shot beautifully out of the goalkeeper’s hands. It sums him up well.”
As for the overall picture of the game, Van Nistelrooy admitted that in the first half the team did not play as well as they should. “If I were to put it politely, I would say that in the first half we played very poorly. But in the second half we did a lot better. It can clearly see that. In the first half we didn’t stand well at all. We were too far removed from our position. But in the second half we did a lot better and got into our game.”
