'The worst part' — Struggling Amorim reacts to Man Utd draw against Everton

Ruben Amorim has called his Manchester United side too “soft” after their 2-2 draw against Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday.

Manchester United staged a dramatic comeback to earn a 2-2 draw against Everton, but manager Ruben Amorim couldn't hide his disappointment.

Everton took a commanding 2-0 lead through goals from Beto and Abdoulaye Doucouré, and United's listless performance seemed set to continue.

However, Bruno Fernandes sparked a late revival with a left-footed strike, and Manuel Ugarte equalized with a stunning volley.

The match ended in a frantic finale, with Everton denied a penalty after a VAR review. Amorim acknowledged that his team's fighting spirit earned them a point, but he was critical of their overall performance.

"If you start the game without the first half and losing 2-0, it is a good point," Amorim told TNT Sports.

"But we need three points and we need to win the game.

"The worst part is that we are losing the ball without pressure and we are not doing what we need to do. We were soft."
