In this round of Premier League, Manchester United beat Sunderland 2-0. Manchester United player Mount was interviewed after the game and talked about topics such as winning before the international match, scoring his first home goal at the Premier League, and the team's current mentality.
Mount, thank you very much. Winning and getting three points before the international match, now you have won three consecutive home games. It's a wonderful day for Manchester United fans, isn't it?
Yes, that's right. I know it's been a tough lately, but I'm really happy to win today, especially at home. I think we played very steadily. When we start sharply at home, we have a great chance to win the game. I think it is also important to score the first goal in the first half and then score another one, and to score a clean sheet.
So overall, today was a great show for the team and the fans, especially after the last disappointing game. We are now looking forward to continuing to unite as a team. I know there will be a break before the next game, but we will be ready for it.
We talked in the summer and I know how much effort you put into reaching a level that can affect the game like this. This is your first start since August. How do you evaluate your performance and how do you evaluate yourself?
I haven't watched the replay yet. Well, yes, a good question. Haven't seen it yet. Yes of course. Of course, today is under a lot of pressure. So, for us, it is very important to stand up at the spiritual level and truly show our characteristics. There is also a message from the coaching staff on how we will start the game. Like I said before, the first five minutes. So, yes, it feels very good to be on the roster and score the first goal at home in the Premier League.
I have been waiting for a long time, so I hope there will be more goals. Interestingly, you happened to predict my next question, which is what it feels like to score a goal here?
Yes, it feels great. I haven't watched the replay yet. This feels great. Whenever I go on the court, I want to be on the roster, help the lads and bring vitality to the stadium.
Yes, this is a good start and you need to take a look back. You control the ball, use your teammates as a cover, and then roll the ball into the bottom right corner. When some great players shot, they said it felt like everything was slowing down. Did you feel this way at that time?
Yes. It feels a bit like slow motion. I think it was the ball passed by B, right? So when the ball comes over it feels like slow motion and then you touch the ball and I just remember seeing the defender rushing towards me and I just want to use him (as a cover). Well, I'm very lucky that the ball entered. So, yes, it feels really good.
The last question before I let you go, winning consecutive home games in the Premier League and entering international match day with three points. What does this mean for the team's emotions, confidence and morale?
is of great significance. But of course, we know there is still a long break before the next game. So, the key is to keep moving forward and continue to improve in training. We have a few days off now, but when we get back to Carrington, we will work very hard to prepare for the next game. This is very important. Every game is important. We want to earn as many points as possible.
