Southampton manager, Ivan Juric
Head coach of Southampton FC, Ivan Juric, praised Ghanaian attacker Kamaldeen Sulemana for his impressive performance against Manchester United in the Premier League.
Speaking to the media after the game, Juric commended Sulemana for his quality and urged him to be consistent with his performance in subsequent games.
“Since I arrived here, he has been working well. I think he has quality. I don’t know why in these two years he did not express himself. Now he just has to continue playing like this; he is really good,” he told the media.
Sulemana seemed to have rediscovered his form, starring for the Saints as a late Amad Diallo hat-trick sank Southampton at Old Trafford.
The former Stade Rennais star played with full intensity against the Red Devils, marking his first Premier League appearance of the season.
The Saints, who have had a challenging season since their return to the Premier League, broke the deadlock two minutes before half-time when Manuel Ugarte scored an own goal.
Despite holding off the Red Devils for most of the match, Southampton collapsed in the final eight minutes, as Ivorian winger Amad Diallo netted a quick-fire hat-trick.
His first came in the 82nd minute before giving his side the lead in the 90th minute. Diallo then sealed his hat-trick two minutes later, as the Red Devils returned to winning ways in the Premier League.
