In the EFL Cup matchup, Manchester United defeated Crystal Palace by a score of 3-0. Notably, Soufoun Rabat, a midfielder on loan from Ferrandina, made his debut as a debutant. Although manager Tannhägger placed him at left-back, the 27-year-old Moroccan international continued to excel, greatly enhancing the team's tactical flexibility.
The two left-backs in the United squad, Lauki Combur and Duvel Malacia, are currently nursing injuries, while new left-back Ligurão was also unlucky to sustain an injury in the last round of Premier League matches. As a result, Tannhäuser has brought in Soufun Rabat at left back for today's match. The "bald guy" joined United at the last minute before the transfer window closed, but due to injury problems, he didn't make his debut as a substitute until the end of the last round of the Premier League game, making his first start for United. Despite this being his first start and being temporarily relegated to left back, he continued to perform well. After Mason Mount was substituted in the second half, Sufn Rabert returned to his best midfield position and showed great skill.
