Wow! Man Utd just got KO'd by Derby County, that's a devastating blow for the both the team and Mourinho, I mean, they just lost against a low tier side in the third round of the league cup...what?
I watched the game, and I gotta say, I think Man Utd deserved to get KO, first half was alright, but it was mind blowing just how the team kinda gave up on the attack in the 2nd half, it's like they didn't have any motivation to keep playing, though the red card to Romero didn't help either. Props to Derby County for playing the way they did, 2nd half they decided to go deeper on the attack, and it actually worked as they scored two goals, could've been three and game over if it wasn't for Grant's save in the last 10 min.
This victory could mean a lot to the future of Lampard's career as a manager. Also, what a game from Harry Wilson, only 21yo but what a player.
Derby aren't exactly a low-tier side. They're doing pretty well in the Championship and have a few great players. That free kick Harry Wilson scored was world class and he's a player on loan from Liverpool. United fielded essentially a B-team and nobody really gives a shit about the crappy Carabao cup. United have had lots of losses to smaller teams in such competitions as well. They got beat 4-0 a few years ago in the same competition by MK Dons:
