Eagle-eyed fans spot Ruben Amorim’s ice cold reaction to Marcus Rashford’s opening goal in Ipswich clash
EAGLE-EYED fans spotted Ruben Amorim’s ice cold reaction to Marcus Rashford’s goal against Ipswich Town.
The Manchester United forward netted 81 seconds into Amorim’s reign as manager.

While the players were overjoyed in celebrations of the goal, Amorim had a different reaction.
The manager was caught on camera having a very muted reaction to taking the early lead.
And fans have hailed the former Sporting boss’ ice-cold demeanour on social media.
One posted: “No celebration from Amorim, so cold.”
A second commented: “Amorim’s reaction to the goal omg he’s so cold.”
A third wrote: “Ice cold Amorim.”
A fourth said: “No reaction from Amorim. My manager is cold as ice.”

A fifth declared: “Amorim doesn’t celebrate goals – man is too cold!”
Another added: “Amorim is so cold, man didn’t even celebrate.”
Despite the early positivity from Man United the match was not a total dream start.
Ipswich town grew into the game and looked the better side after the first 45 minutes.
Liam Delap was denied an equaliser by a brilliant save from Andre Onana in the 40th minute.
Omari Hutchinson then fired the Tractor Boys level with a curling effort into the top corner after a deflection.
The officials were also disrupted during the game as VAR went down due to a fire alarm at Stockley Park.
Three Sporting stars Amorim could swoop for after joining Man Utd
RUBEN AMORIM has ruled out poaching any of his Sporting Lisbon players in the January transfer window.
But the Portuguese side’s chiefs expect Amorim will come calling in the summer – with his cheque book wide open.
Here’s are three Sporting starts United could swoop for… but they won’t come cheap:
VIKTOR GYOKERES
Age: 26
Position: Striker
Cost: £84million
Swede has shone since joining Sporting last summer from Coventry — catching the eye of all Europe’s top clubs.
Hit 43 goals in 50 games last season and boasts 18 strikes already this term.
GONCALO INACIO
Age: 23
Position: Defender
Cost: £50million
Ball-playing centre-back was handed his debut by Amorim and has since become a key figure in Sporting’s recent title successes.
Can also slot in at left-back if required and has 12 caps for Portugal.
MORTEN HJULMAND
Age: 25
Position: Midfield
Cost: £40million
Dane is one of the top holding midfielders in Portugal — and made skipper by Amorim.
He could be the man to replace Casemiro.
