In the 79th minute of the highly anticipated match between Manchester United and Liverpool, Alejandro Garnacho was substituted off the field. This decision made by United's coach, Erik ten Hag, raised some eyebrows and left fans wondering why the young Argentine winger was taken out of the game.

The coach was impressed with the 19-year-old's performance and praised him for his contributions. He expressed his confidence in Kambwala's abilities and his potential to play a crucial role in the future of Manchester United.
Speaking about Kambwala's performance, Ten Hag said, "We were convinced he could do the job and he has done brilliantly. I am very pleased and happy with his performance. It's a clear message that Manchester United is building for the future." The coach also highlighted the upcoming challenges for Kambwala and urged him to maintain consistency in his performance as some injured players will be returning to the team in the coming weeks.
The match between Manchester United and Liverpool was highly anticipated and lived up to the expectations with an intense and thrilling game. Fans were treated to a display of skill and determination from both sides, and despite the draw, United's coach remains optimistic about the team's future.
