Bad luck is following us: the new reason why everyone is talking about Manchester U. and it is not positive

Manchester United is experiencing a season to forget. In addition to the crisis of results and infrastructure problems at Old Trafford, an unusual statistic has now been added: the team has conceded two Olympic goals in just seven days, a practically unprecedented fact in elite football. This peculiar negative streak has added fuel to the fire at an already delicate moment for the club.

Olympic double with a taste of defeat:

The nightmare began in London, a week ago, when Tottenham Hotspur beat Manchester United 4-3. In that match, the South Korean Heung-Min Son surprised everyone by scoring an Olympic goal, opening the scoring for the Spurs and contributing to the subsequent defeat of the Red Devils.

But what seemed like an unfortunate coincidence was repeated just seven days later at Old Trafford. In the match corresponding to the 18th round of the Premier League against Wolverhampton, the Brazilian Matheus Cunha emulated Son and scored another Olympic goal, sealing the victory of the Wolves by 2-0.

Onana claims, but the goal goes on the scoreboard:

On both occasions, the Manchester United goalkeepers, first in London and then André Onana at home, claimed a possible infringement in the six-yard box. However, neither the main referees nor those in charge of the VAR considered that there had been any foul, validating both Olympic goals. This situation has generated some controversy and debate about the interpretation of the plays.

A statistic for Ripley:

Conceding two Olympic goals in the same season is already a rare occurrence. But doing so in two consecutive games, with just one week of difference, is a statistic that borders on the unusual. This double Olympic curse will undoubtedly draw the attention of coach Ruben Amorim and his coaching staff, who will have to analyse what factors have contributed to this peculiar situation.

More fuel to the fire at a critical moment:

These two Olympic goals have further aggravated the crisis that Manchester United is experiencing. The team has accumulated three consecutive defeats and is in a compromised position in the Premier League table. The pressure on Amorim and his players increases as the results do not accompany.

Amorim's analysis:

Although there are no specific public statements from Amorim regarding the Olympic goals, it is likely that the Portuguese coach is working with his players to improve defending in set pieces and communication between the goalkeeper and the defence in these types of situations. Without a doubt, this aspect will become a key point to work on in training.

Conclusion:

The double Olympic curse that Manchester United has suffered in just seven days is a reflection of the bad moment that the club is going through. This unusual statistic adds to the crisis in results and infrastructure problems, generating great concern among fans. Ruben Amorim has a great challenge ahead to turn the situation around and restore confidence in the team. Attention now focuses on how the team will respond to this new adversity and whether it will be able to overcome this negative streak.
