In the fifth round of the 2025-26 Premier League, Manchester United defeated Chelsea 2-1 at home and earned three points.

This victory not only allowed Manchester United to continue to advance in the standings, but also witnessed captain Bruno Fernandes' 100th goal for the team, which was of great significance. After the game, coach Ruben Amorim highly praised the team's performance in an interview.

Amorim first praised the team's start. He said frankly: "We started very well and aggressively, especially showing fighting spirit in the fight for the second ball. Although we created some complicated situations during the game, our overall sense of urgency and execution helped us take the initiative."

Speaking about the significance of this victory, Amorim described it as precious: "I am well aware of the attention and pressure on the club. We may lose to weaker teams at times, but we can also beat any strong opponent. Most importantly, this victory allows us to move forward and reminds us that we must maintain that desire."

On a more personal level, Fernandes' milestone moment became a hot topic after the game. As captain, he not only completed his 200th Premier League appearance, but also scored his 100th goal in a Manchester United shirt.
