Manchester United's opponents, Fehrenbach, debuted with a 1-1 draw in a heated European fixture, with their coach Moleno the center of attention. As the second half unfolded, Molenu was ejected with a red card for excessive complaint behavior. As the game came to an end, he sharply criticized the referee's decision, arguing that Fehrenbach deserved a 12-yard penalty for their outstanding performance, and that United seemed to have "taken advantage of the situation".
After Fehrenbach's equalizer in the second half, there were rumors that Vinlur Ugadidi had fouled Sem in the penalty area, but the referee did not make a call. Molenu's heated protests on the sidelines caught the attention of the referee. After the match, he blasted Ball Witness via social media, "Ball Witness told me that I only paid attention to what was going on in the box, but I also wanted to see the dynamics in the coaching area. I'm proud of my fantastic ability and that's what makes me one of the best players in Europe."
Regarding his performance in the match, Molenu was blunt: "Objectively speaking, my performance was better than United's, so I got a point at United, and my performance on the field got me a point, and I worked quite well with United." He also gave special praise to United goalkeeper Oonana, citing his two consecutive saves on Annesley's header shots in the first half as key to United's ability to keep the scoreline intact.
