Antony became a substitute against Fulham playing in the final nine minutes of extra time in a 2-1 defeat. After the Brazilian came in the match was changed for the last two minutes.
When asked about the late introduction of the striker Erik ten Hag said that as forwarded by Fabrizio Romano it has nothing to do with fitness.
He fits but we have a lot of options on the right. I am putting players who deserve to play. With that form in the fall we all saw and Antony had to step up.
The Brazilian has made 24 appearances for United so far this season scoring one goal and passing the ball to his team-mates in a 4-2 win over Newport Couty. In the FA Cup.
The last time the 24-year-old made his Premier League debut came on December 30 last year in a 2-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest.
