Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim believed Arsenal’s winning goal in the teams’ Premier League match at Old Trafford on Sunday should have been disallowed for a “clear” foul in the buildup.

Arsenal started their Premier League campaign with a 1-0 win at Manchester United on Sunday, capitalizing on a defensive error during a game in which both sides failed to generate a lot of quality attacking chances.

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim says his side’s performance in their 1-0 defeat by Arsenal proved that they can win “any game in the Premier League”. Arsenal’s 1-0 win at Old Trafford came after Riccardo Calafiori headed in from close range in the 13th minute after United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir failed to deal with a Declan Rice corner.

Manchester United start their 2025/26 campaign with a blockbuster match against Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday, August 17.

Manchester United vs Arsenal proved an unusually high-tax affair for Week 1 of a Premier League season, and it was ultimately an error that divided the sides at Old Trafford.

But Arsenal were given a helping hand by Altay Bayindir and, indirectly, Amorim. The Turkey international’s lame punch allowed Riccardo Calafiori to head in from a yard; if Viktor Gyokeres, the debutant striker, was supposed to be the final piece in Arteta’s jigsaw, there was something typical of his teams in that the goal came from the left-back.
