Manchester United caretaker manager Ruud van Nistelrooy praised Casemiro’s standout performance following the Red Devils’ 5-2 Carabao Cup victory over Leicester City. Casemiro scored twice, playing a key role in securing United’s spot in the quarter-finals. Van Nistelrooy expressed his delight with the Brazilian midfielder’s contribution: “I was delighted for Casemiro. The way he has been training and helping the team, such an example, we are delighted to have him around. He was almost blamed for the Liverpool game. It is not fair, totally not true.” He added, “He is an example for us.”
