Jose Mourinho had a funny message for Rostov player after Manchester United draw
Posted Friday, March 10, 2017 by givemesport.com
Jose Mourinho will be a relieved man after his Manchester United team got through their Europa League tie in Russia unscathed.
The Red Devils secured a 1-1 draw against Rostov and none of his players got injured. On a pitch that was, quite frankly, awful, that's as good as he could have hoped for.
Owen Hargreaves, on co-commentary duty for BT Sport, noted about the pitch: "It's ridiculous how poor it is," and the reason why Mourinho wanted the game to be called off quickly became clear.
The Portuguese admitted before the game that he was unsure if Henrikh Mkhitaryan would play on a surface that would only increase the risk of him hurting the hamstring injury that has kept him out for two weeks.
But not only did the Armenian manage to play for 67 minutes, he also scored the away goal that should ensure United's progression to the quarter-finals.
