Ruben Amorim Praises Four Manchester United Stars After Newcastle Win

The 19-year-old Denmark international was named man of the match after a key defensive display that secured a 1-0 Boxing Day win over Newcastle, manager Ruben Amorim said.

  • On Dec 26, 2025, Ruben Amorim praised his depleted Manchester United team after their 1-0 Boxing Day win over Newcastle United.
  • With multiple absences, Amorim managed without seven senior players and shifted to a back four formation to address the squad's limitations.
  • Selected ahead of Leny Yoro, Ayden Heaven, 19-year-old Manchester United defender, started five games in a row and earned man of the match after a strong defensive display in the 1-0 win.
  • Heaven's display could affect selection when United host Wolves early next week, as Amorim told Ayden Heaven his starting place is safe if he maintains this form.
  • Manuel Ugarte stood out with one of his best performances despite just 33% possession, while Lisandro Martinez impressed on his first start since February 2 at Old Trafford.
