RUBEN AMORIM is tasked with steering the struggling Manchester United away from the peril of relegation, as he has ruled out any aspirations for a European finish.
The Red Devils conceded yet another goal directly from a corner, this time off the strike from Matheus Cunha, with goalkeeper Andre Onana making an error.

Substitute Hee Chan Hwang then scored in injury time on a foggy Molineux pitch.
Bruno Fernandes was shown a red card with the score at 0-0 — marking the captain’s third dismissal this season — after receiving two yellow cards.
The loss leaves United in 14th position, eight points above the relegation zone. When asked about the risk of relegation, Amorim said, “Our focus is on survival and occasionally securing wins while developing the team.”
“We face tough matches ahead, and it’s a long road. As I’ve stated from the beginning, we need to be resilient and face our challenging moments, as that’s part of football.
“When things aren’t going our way, it’s even harder for the players to keep their faith.”
When asked about European qualification, Amorim responded firmly: “No, no, no, no.”
“We must address a number of issues within our club, both on and off the field.
“Let’s stay focused on each upcoming match and make the most of every training session to improve our team.”

Onana faltered in stopping Cunha’s corner just a week after Altay Bayindir was also caught off guard by Son Heung-min during Tottenham’s 4-3 victory in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
Amorim highlighted, “We controlled the first half but lacked sufficient aggression in the final third.

“At halftime, we discussed tactical adjustments, but the red card changed the match’s momentum.”
Fernandes received a second yellow card for a foul on Nelson Semedo.
Amorim commented, “I always find myself frustrated with red cards.
“He is merely attempting to play the ball; he doesn’t mean to foul an opponent with a yellow card.
“The opponent touches the ball first, causing a collision, which is tough for him too.”
Marcus Rashford has missed the squad for the fourth consecutive match, with Amorim maintaining: “The reason remains unchanged.
“We must uphold professionalism in both wins and losses.
“In defeat, I need to exhibit more resolve. I will adhere to my approach until the end.”
New Wolves manager Vitor Pereira, who has enjoyed victories in his first two games, stated: “It’s an incredible feeling, particularly due to the team spirit.
“The players have shown they are ready to work hard, run, and fight for every ball.”
Cunha, who scored for Wolves, participated in this match awaiting the FA’s decision on a potential punishment for elbowing an Ipswich staff member earlier this month.
Regarded as an Arsenal target, he remarked: “Vitor brings so much energy, which is felt throughout the squad.
“It means a lot — the joy is straightforward in the stadium.”
