Luke Shaw believes his colleagues deserve huge praise against Brighton.
Luke Shaw hailed the “amazing confidence” shown by Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho to take penalties in Manchester United’s FA Cup semi-final shoot-out win over Brighton and Hove Albion.Sancho and Rashford stepped up third and fourth respectively for United at Wembley, where the game finished 0-0 after extra time, and were both successful from 12 yards as United prevailed 7-6 on penalties.The United team-mates, along with Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka, suffered racist abuse on the back of missing penalties in England’s shoot-out defeat to Italy at the same venue in the Euro 2020 final.
Shaw, who was on the scoresheet in that meeting with Italy, believes his international and club colleagues deserve huge praise for stepping up and converting in the tense showdown against Brighton.”I was next to Jadon. I said, ‘Whatever happens happens, just be confident. It’s part of football, things happen, these things happen’,” Shaw said.”I think maybe what was playing on their minds are the things that come with it, the racism and stuff that they experienced last time.”For me, they showed amazing confidence to step up and because the last time they took one in a shoot-out it was here and the memories that come with that.
