Christian Eriksen has revealed when he discovered he would be starting in Manchester United's 2-0 win at Nottingham Forest.
United strengthened their grasp on third place on Sunday with an exciting and dominant victory at the City Ground. Antony opened the scoring in the first half as he bundled a loose ball over the line before Diogo Dalot secured the points later on with a confident finish.
The win was made even more impressive by the fact Erik ten Hag's growing injury crisis worsened further before the game as Marcel Sabitzer was forced to drop out of the starting XI late on after suffering a groin injury in the warm-ups. Eriksen was his replacement but he didn't discover he was playing until a matter of minutes before kick-off when Darren Fletcher informed him as the players were heading back to the dressing rooms.
