Frenkie de Jong was quick to praise Netherlands teammate Wout Weghorst after the striker scored his first goal for Manchester United in the 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest.
The Reds took a commanding lead in the Carabao Cup semi-final tie, with Marcus Rashford, Weghorst and Bruno Fernandes all on target for Erik ten Hag's side at the City Ground. It was Rashford's 10th goal in his last 10 matches, while Weghorst was on the scoresheet for the first time since arriving at Old Trafford on loan.
The striker, who is on loan from Championship side Burnley, was praised for his hold-up play against Steve Cooper's side. He made it 2-0 to United just before the half-time break, reacting well to finish after Wayne Hennessey had saved Antony's initial effort.
