Away from home, Man United had a difficult match. They only scored 1 goal by Benjamin Sesko in the 71st minute. The defense of the Red Devils and goalkeeper Lammens continuously faced attacks from Everton, especially at the end of the second half. The home team was awarded many corner kicks, using many players to surround the Man United goalkeeper.
However, Senne Lammens played very solidly, reacted quickly, and rushed out to punch the ball effectively. Lammens' performance contributed greatly to helping Man United win the match, thereby advancing into the Top 4 of the Premier League.
“For me, a goalkeeper must be reliable. Instead of creating chaos, he must know how to calm down. I think Senne did it. He made a few really excellent saves, looking very calm and confident in a difficult environment.
Many corner kicks flew under the crossbar, but he was not discouraged, handled some situations well and caught the ball neatly. Senne played extremely well for Man United in this match," said Man United coach Michael Carrick.
Meanwhile, coach David Moyes assessed Lammens as Man United's best player. He emphasized: "Man United's goalkeeper played excellently, from saving Michael Kean's shot to neutralizing corner kicks.
We hoped to score goals from set pieces, but we couldn't. For me, he is the best player on the field”.
For his part, the Belgian goalkeeper emphasized that he believes in himself. The performance against Everton is another affirmation that Lammens has enough qualities to wear the Man United shirt. According to him, if Man United defends well, they can beat any team.
He shared: "If we coordinate well, defend solidly, and not concede goals, we will have attacking players who can make a difference. Just a quick counter-attack, a scoring opportunity, and you can score.
Just a flash of light can score, and if we keep a clean sheet, we can win away from home, for example in a difficult match like this. So, today I am really very happy.
According to Lammens, Everton is a very physically strong team, with tall players and creating a lot of pressure in corner kicks. However, the Man United goalkeeper emphasized that he has strengths in situations like this and is very happy to contribute to the victory for his team.
Van der Sar, former Man United goalkeeper, said that he found similarities between himself and Lammens, especially calmness. Regarding this, Lammens shared: "I just try to stay calm, play my own style of play. I know I have the necessary qualities, otherwise I wouldn't be here.
Therefore, I just need to believe in myself, have teammates who always support me a lot. Now is the time for me to continue to cultivate confidence, especially with victories like today.
