superheng1688 Alan Shearer praised Chido Obi’s performance as a substitute in Manchester United’s FA Cup defeat to Fulham on penalties.

The 17-year-old forward was given another chance to start, coming on as a substitute for Rasmus Hojlund in the 68th minute when the score was down, before Bruno Fernandes equalised in the 71st minute. superheng1688

During the game, Obi created three scoring chances and almost scored the winning goal late on, but was saved by Bernd Leno over the bar. Despite his short-lived performance, legendary striker Shearer praised him as more dangerous in front of goal than Hojlund.

“He looks like a real threat in that area,” Shearer told the BBC.

“He has more to offer than Hojlund when he comes on. He looks dangerous and difficult to deal with. I like what I see from Obi. I really do. He gives the team a different option to play.” ( superheng1688 )
