Man United manager Ruben Amorim is forced into covering latest cuts on his knuckle with a plaster just months after he ‘smashed dressing room TV during angry outburst’

Ruben Amorim was seen sporting a plaster across the back of his left hand during his side’s semi-final second leg triumph over Athletic Club to reach the Europa League final on Thursday night.

United booked their spot in the Europa League final by virtue of a 7-1 aggregate thrashing of Athletic Club, thanks to goals from Mason Mount, Casemiro and Rasmus Hojlund at Old Trafford. 

The Red Devils already had one foot in the final, ironically to be played in Bilbao, after beating their opponents 3-0 in the first leg, and will now take on Tottenham in an all-English affair later this month.

However, while fans were naturally in jubilant mood after the game celebrating reaching a European final, there were some left concerned. 

When Amorim appeared on TNT sports for his post-match interview, he could be seen sporting a plaster across the back of his left hand. 

Similarly, during his post-match press conference he could be seen with cuts across the back of his hand and knuckles as he addressed the media.

Additionally, some eagle-eyed viewers on social media spotted him with the same dressing just after kick-off, having arrived at Old Trafford for the game without anything on the back of his hand and no signs of damage. 

It comes just a few months after he damaged a TV screen in Manchester United’s dressing-room during a furious rant at his players after a January defeat by Brighton.

United’s head coach is understood to have lost his temper as he launched a post-match inquest at Old Trafford and caused the damage by accident.

Afterwards, United’s players were struck by how ‘sad’ and ‘deflated’ Amorim appeared having then been handed a seventh defeat in 15 games at the club. 

After that reported outburst, the former Sporting Club head coach could be seen with a cut to his knuckles. 

Regardless, Amorim was clearly in high spirits after the game, and was quick to pile praise on hero of the night Mount, who scored twice in a fantastic cameo, including a goal from almost 50 yards which left his boss beaming on the touchline.

‘Not just me, if you look at the bench, that is the best feeling as a coach,’ Amorim said of the celebrations at Mount’s goals.

‘When you look at the other guys on the bench, they are so happy for Mason Mount because everybody in that dressing room sees Mason doing everything he can to be available.

‘He’s a really good player and you can see both goals are really good goals. So I think not just Mason Mount, not just me, but also the team-mates, they were so happy for him.’ 

He added: ‘It is important for every player, when you see that kind of guy working hard every day, eating well, resting, ice bath, when you have these kind of players you just want to help them and he can run like a winger and play with his back to goal.’

Meanwhile, speaking post-match Mount said: ‘It has been difficult since I have been here with injuries and setbacks and I knew something good was going to come and tonight it has paid off. It was a brilliant performance, we knew they would attack us but to get the first goal calmed us down.

‘It has been too long but I carried on going working hard in training every day and tried to stay positive, when I have the opportunity to come on I try and come on and calm the game down and have an impact

‘As I saw him come out I was in front of my midfielder I had in my head first touch and shoot, I didn’t mean for it to go on my left but I saw the defender was away so to get it on target really. The first one was instinct.

‘The crowd has been unbelievable, they have stuck with us, my first goals here so a special night, one I have waited for a a long time and to go back to Bilbao is special.’
