On the morning of May 2, Man United won 3-0 against Athletic Bilbao in the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals. Casemiro helped the "red devils" open the score, while Bruno Fernandes was the author of the remaining two goals. In this match, Harry Maguire was arranged in the back line in the 3-center-back formation of coach Ruben Amorim.
But what is talked about him the most is his ability to… attack. Casemiro’s opening goal in the 30th minute had a strong mark of the player born in 1993. Harry Maguire suddenly appeared on the right wing, pressing against Mikel Jauregizar’s marking. Then, he had two tricky turns, causing the Bilbao player to miss.
With space, Maguire crossed the ball into the penalty area. Ugarte was the one who jumped high to head the ball for Casemiro to score.
This situation made fans admire Harry Maguire. On social networks, he was even compared to Brazilian legend Ronaldinho, who is a "master" of skillful and skillful dribbling.
The nickname that fans use to call Maguire is "Harrydinho" even though he is a center back. Previously in the second leg of the quarter-finals, Harry Maguire came on and was arranged to play as a striker. His header in the last minute of injury time opened the way for Man United's thrilling victory over Lyon.
And of course, the experts did not forget to praise this player. Man United captain Bruno Fernandes said: "Look at Maguire as a real full-back. I don't think he knows he has the ability to dribble like that. Now Maguire is much more confident. Every time he plays, his position is stronger and hopefully everything will improve."
Former Man United player Phil Jones commented: "I don't think he can dribble like that. Before when we were in the same team, I never saw Maguire do that. It was a great dribble and the cross was also quality."
The English midfielder himself also had a humorous response when talking about the nickname Harrydinho that fans call him.
"I'm sure there are a few more nicknames for me," he said. "But the important thing is that the team won. I went forward and Garnacho probably passed the ball. It felt great to dribble and cross."
