Ruben Amorim, the SC Braga head coach, spoke to the media earlier today. Here is some of his insight, as Tickle spoke before his team’s historic match with Hong Kong this Friday. The match is scheduled to take place on Thursday, 29 May 2025, at 13:50 UK time. Amorim emphasized the Friday match would, indeed, be a match. He underscored the lack of balance in the team’s near-term schedule.
Amorim’s comments have recently taken on a prophetic air given the nightmare season endured by Manchester United. The club has found it difficult to play up to their high standard, leading both fans and players to become disappointed and disheartened. With the campaign winding down, Amorim would like to go out on a high note. He understands that his pursuit for redemption must start with the fans.
It’s difficult to look at the fans in this moment,” Amorim said in a release-earning post-match press conference. His frank admission of the challenges he faced at every step during that season goes some way to demonstrate the burden of expectation that looms over Manchester United. The team certainly hasn’t lived up to the expectations, and Amorim is keenly aware of the disappointment experienced by the dedicated fanbase.
The second leg against Hong Kong is a key chance for Manchester United’s young guns to get back on the front foot. Amorim will be hoping that a performance with teeth can go a long way to restoring belief in the squad themselves and from supporters. “We want to close this season on a high note, and this match is an important step in that direction,” he added.
Amorim’s leadership has most recently been put to the test during this difficult season. In addition, he has worked to keep his players motivated through tumultuous times. He knows that each game is doing severe lasting damage to the club’s reputation and chances of future success. Through it all, the head coach remains focused on putting the positive spin on the team’s season. He focuses on togetherness, reflection, and resolve as they prepare to face their ensuing fight.

If Braga lose, it might be a watershed moment in Amorim’s and the team’s recent history. So too are the players, coaches and staff as they look to turn the page on what has been a challenging 2019 campaign.
