"There was a moment as Senne Lammens reflected on Manchester United's 2-1 win at Liverpool on Sunday and his role in it when he seemed to want to shrug it off as just another game. It is a sentiment that those who have closely followed his progress would recognise. The 23-year-old goalkeeper, who moved to United from Royal Antwerp at the beginning of September, is all about stability and humility."
"The pressure on United finally to win back-to-back league matches under Amorim; the intense heat on the manager himself; the spotlight on the goalkeeper position after all that has happened with Andre Onana and, to a lesser extent, Altay Bayindir. It all went into the mix. And that was before people considered that it was comfortably the most high-profile game of Lammens' career, one in which he has played regularly for a single season last time out at Antwerp."
Senne Lammens, 23, moved from Royal Antwerp to Manchester United in early September and delivered a composed second appearance as United beat Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield. He emphasized consistent preparation and humility while acknowledging the unique pressure of the fixture. United faced intense demand to win consecutive league matches under Amorim, heightened scrutiny of the goalkeeper position after issues with Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir, and an electric Liverpool comeback that saw Cody Gakpo equalise in the 78th minute. Bruno Fernandes' assist and Harry Maguire's 84th-minute header secured the decisive goal amid Liverpool's finishing shortcomings.
