Man. United vs. PAOK Match Highlights

Eager to break their European dry spell, Manchester United took the lead early in the second half. Amad Diallo opened the scoring with a precise header, putting United ahead. Recently out of the starting lineup, Amad took this opportunity to excel at Old Trafford, earning Man of the Match.

In the 77th minute, Amad struck again, winning back possession and scoring his second goal. Despite a minor injury, he reassured fans that he was “fine” afterward. This was one of the final games under interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy, with Ruben Amorim set to step in after Sunday’s match against Leicester City.

This victory was essential for United after three consecutive draws in the Europa League. While the first half lacked energy, Amad’s early second-half goal set the tone for United’s success.
