Joshua Zirkzee has known how to overcome pressure and score

In the context of increasingly surrounded doubt, Joshua Zirkzee spoke up at the right time with a double against Everton in round 13 of the Premier League.

Like Marcus Rashford, Joshua Zirkzee scored a double against Everton - his first goal for Manchester United since his debut against Fulham in August.

It can be said that the first time at Old Trafford has been extremely difficult for the Dutch striker. There were even doubts about the "Red Devils" rushing to recruit Zirkzee from Bologna last summer. The peak of disappointment was the rumor that the striker could return to Serie A in January on loan.

Zirkzee seemed to have difficulty understanding Amorim's demands in the match against Ipswich. Therefore, it was a bit of a surprise when this player was chosen to start against Everton. However, in the end, the 23-year-old striker responded to Amorim's faith.

Originating from a mistake by Everton's defense, Amad won the ball before passing it to Bruno Fernandes to penetrate the penalty area. The Portuguese midfielder then passed the ball just in time for Zirkzee to comfortably tap the ball in from close range.

Meanwhile, the Dutch striker's second goal also came from the confusion of Everton's defense. This time, the person who assisted Zirkzee to complete the double was Amad, thereby sealing a 4-0 victory for Man United. The remaining 2 goals of the "Red Devils" were scored by Rashford.

"I need all the players to be able to face every game and Zirkzee is one of them. I just try to help my players and put them in the best position.

Zirkzee did very well. He scored two goals and that is always important for confidence. More importantly, the performance is that he has fought in every situation. So it was a good day for him and for our team," Amorim said after the win over Everton.

Before the match against Everton, Zirkzee had to face a lot of criticism for his poor scoring form. The departure of Erik ten Hag, who signed Zirkzee from Bologna, has further complicated the 23-year-old striker's future.

In particular, Amorim was unhappy with Zirkzee's playing style. The Portuguese tactician expressed his anger at Zirkzee when he said he did not do a good job, putting pressure on the opponent's defense.

Therefore, a double against Everton could be a turning point for Zirkzee to regain his confidence. Moreover, Amorim also needs a stable striker to share the scoring responsibility with Rasmus Hojlund.
