Manchester United, nicknamed the "Red Devils," secured a comfortable 5-0 victory over Rosenborg in a friendly match, thanks to goals from Shea Lacy, Zirkzee, Jacob Dwane, Harry Armas, and Ethan Williams. In an interview, Mount stated that helping younger teammates is an important responsibility for senior players.
In the 31st minute, Zirkzee played a through ball to Shea Lessie, who dribbled past his defender and fired a long-range shot into the net, giving Manchester United a 1-0 lead. In the 56th minute of the second half, Zirkzee received the ball and slotted it into the empty net, making it 2-0.
In the 63rd minute, Manchester United's corner kick was cleared, and Jacob Dewane received the ball in the penalty area and fired a powerful shot into the net, giving Manchester United a 3-0 lead over Rosenborg. In the 72nd minute, Manchester United launched an attack with a cross, and Harry Armas slid in to score, making the score 4-0.
In the 84th minute, Jadan Carmason crossed the ball, and Ethan Williams scored. Ultimately, Manchester United secured a 5-0 victory over Rosenborg in this friendly match.
Manchester United midfielder Mason Mount, 27, said: "I think it's very important for us older players to be actively involved in this work. We need to guide the younger players so that they feel comfortable and secure both on and off the pitch."
“When I was young, I received the same help. Many senior players took care of me and helped me grow. As you get older, you accumulate more and more experience, and this experience should be passed on to younger players to help them continue to improve.”
Mount said, "I think they played exceptionally well. They mostly came on as substitutes in the second half, and I think they played really well. They have to find their rhythm when they come on, which isn't easy, but they did it and scored a few goals. Like I said before, I'm really happy for them."
“I think André Santos is really good. He is very strong defensively and has a great understanding of the game. He always appears in the right position and always takes the initiative to control the ball. It would be really great for me to play with a player like him.”
In addition, Mount said, "It feels great to be able to train and play with him and get to know him better. I also hope to help him grow and make him feel more comfortable in the team."
“Although he is a new player, I think he has integrated very quickly. From the first day he joined the team, he seemed very relaxed. I believe he will be able to show more of his abilities in the future, and our whole team will continue to improve together.”
