David, who heard everything that was said, focused more intently on the match, his eyes glued to the field.
He watched as Wan-Bissaka timed his movements perfectly, lunging into a tackle with pinpoint accuracy to dispossess a Manchester City player. The ball barely had time to settle at his feet before he released it, threading a precise pass down the wing to Bruno Fernandes. The midfielder carried it forward, igniting a Manchester United counterattack. Fernandes played a perfectly weighted through ball to Marcus Rashford, who sprinted past his marker. Rashford reached the edge of the box and struck a low shot, but it skidded just wide of the far post. The only sounds were the players' shouts and the echo of the ball ricocheting off the advertising boards.
