Once 'glass body' is eternal 'glass body'. Manchester United defender Viktor Lindelof (27) collapsed again during the game. It's not like there's been a big crash. It should be considered that the body just collapsed.
In the end, this forced Manchester United manager Hoobeng Amorim to use an unscheduled replacement card. Manchester United fans' anger is pouring on Lindelof as they lose the game.
British media Daily Star said on the 20th (Korea time) 'Amorim Manchester United faced another injury. Star defender Lindelof was injured during the game and was immediately replaced,' he reported. The loss of the game and the injury of the player came at once.
Manchester United played the quarterfinals of the English Football League (EFL) Carabao Cup in the 2024-2025 season against Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, early in the morning. It's a tournament going to the semifinals, so if you lose, you're out. After seven goals, Manchester United lost 3-4.

Manchester United fans were furious after the game. I lost a close game, but there was another reason. This is because Lindelof, who started as a center back, was injured without performing much.
On this day, coach Amorim operated a 3-4-3 formation. Lindelof was placed on the left side of the three-back. However, Lindelof did not defend well and even got hurt. In the 15th minute of the first half, Tottenham scored the first goal. Tottenham Pedro Porro's powerful mid-range shot was blocked by Vindr Kiefer, but Dominic Solanke, who jumped in, scored the second ball. It's not just Lindelof's fault, but it's true that Manchester United's rear defense didn't cope well with the momentary situation.
Lindelof then suddenly sank to the ground in the 44th minute of the first half and sent a replacement sign toward the bench. The exact details of the injuries are unknown. Anyway, I couldn't play the game anymore. Amorim hurriedly put veteran Johnny Evans in.

This situation provoked the anger of Manchester United fans. This is because Lindelof has been injured even before the opening of this season. He was injured in a friendly match against Liverpool in the pre-season and had to be on crutches for a while. Since then, he has not been able to help the team by alternating between injury and return.
Originally, Lindelof was a player who played as a main center back since joining Manchester United in the 2017-2018 season. However, after former coach Erik ten Hag took office, he was completely pushed out of the starting lineup. He sometimes came out as a left fullback, but even he was inconsistent due to frequent injuries. Ahead of this season, United tried to sell Lindelof. However, the plan was also canceled due to injuries.
Manchester United fans deserve to burst. One fan commented "One of the most useless footballers I've ever seen is Lindelof. He does nothing, but he can't maintain his health." Another fan commented "Lindeloff was injured again. He is also a glass player."
