Manchester United coach Amorim: A clean sheet will give us confidence

Manchester United beat Fulham 1-0. Manager Ruben Amorim was happy with the away win with a clean sheet, saying it would bring confidence to the team.

This game is Manchester United's first away win in January, which is very special for the team. The last two away games ended in a draw. Manchester United currently has 29 points in the Premier League, ranking 12th, 12 points behind Manchester City, which is in 4th place.

At the press conference after the game, Amorim said: "This victory is very important. It feels very good to get such a result away from home, especially with the usual support from the fans. But the game itself was not very exciting, and there were not many scoring opportunities in the end."

"We tried to control the game and play our style, but we still have a lot to improve and we could feel that. This time we were able to keep the lead and seal the win with a goal. It's very important for us to win the game now."

When the reporter mentioned the significance of a clean sheet, Amorim thought it was very important for them. Amorim said: "It brings us one step closer to winning the game and gives us confidence. We didn't feel too much pressure today, which is a good sign."

“The clean sheet is not just about not conceding goals, but the difference we made in the game. Like I said, we need to improve a lot in terms of possession. Without the ball, we played OK, controlled the game and scored goals. Now, it’s time for the next game.”
