Amad Diallo: After deleting social media accounts, Ramzan-observing Manchester United star scores winner against Liverpool on empty stomach

Manchester United’s Amad Diallo scored with the last kick of the match to help Manchester United beat Liverpool 4-3 at Old Trafford. The 21-year-old was later sent after he got the second yellow card for removing his shirt in celebration.

Amad admits that he “forgot” about the first yellow, with emotion taking over. He must serve a suspension, in the Premier League against Brentford on March 30.

“It’s not easy its not easy when you are fasting but you need to believe in you,” he told the broadcasters after the match.

“I fast for god. I am fasting and I want to fight for the team If I am in the pitch. So thanks god for this moment,” he added.

Why did Diallo deleted his social media account?

A couple of weeks ago, the Manchester United winger had deleted his social media accounts to focus on the holy month.

“I deactivated my social media for a month just to focus on Ramadan, it’s a holy month for me and social media is a place where there are bad things to see during fasting. Stop the hatred, there’s nothing wrong with what I did,” he explained his decision.

A quick recap of the match

Scott McTominay put United ahead in the 10th minute before goals from Alexis Mac Allister in the 44th and Mohamed Salah in the second minute of first-half stoppage time gave Liverpool the lead at the break.

After Antony leveled, Harvey Elliott hit the post for Liverpool and Rashford fired wide with only the ‘keeper to beat with the final kick in regulation.

In extra time Elliott restored Liverpool’s lead in the 105th and Rashford leveled for United seven minutes later.

Diallo’s winner killed off Jurgen Klopp’s hopes of winning four trophies before he steps down at the end of the season.

Liverpool has already won the League Cup, is second in the league and through to the quarterfinals of the Europa League.
