Manchester United fans have been reacting on social media after seeing what Casemiro did when he was taken off against Athletic Club.
On Thursday evening, Casemiro took the field for Ruben Amorim’s team, securing their spot in the Europa League final. After a commanding 3-0 advantage from the first leg, United triumphed 4-1 at Old Trafford, with Mason Mount scoring twice, alongside contributions from Casemiro and Rasmus Hojlund.
Footage shared on social media captured a heartfelt embrace between Casemiro and manager Amorim as he exited the pitch, making way for Mainoo.
Reacting to the pair’s embrace, one fan said: “That’s not something you see every day…. love that.”
Another tweeted: “This gave me so much life.”
A third fan added: “It’s been a long time since we’ve seen togetherness within this United Squad, and I’m loving it!”
Someone else wrote: “Gets me gassed. He’s been really good for like 2 months. F***ing love his passion, feel like he’s the type of player who could retire here.”
A fifth commented: “Love this! Case has turned his United career around again! Hope he stays for another year.”
Following a period of difficulty in securing a position in the starting lineup since Amorim’s arrival, Casemiro has shown significant improvement in his performance in recent months. Overall, the 33-year-old has participated in 39 matches across all competitions this season, netting five goals and providing three assists.
This weekend, United will resume their Premier League campaign as they face West Ham United at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.
