In the early morning of November 7, Antony showed impressive form for Real Betis when he scored a goal in the 2-0 victory over Lyon in the fourth round of the Europa League qualifying round. This goal helped Betis consolidate their position in the top 8 of the Europa League, and at the same time, made the public once again mention the "Antony deal", the contract that cost MU nearly 100 million euros to recruit from Ajax. The expectations placed on the Brazilian star were once very high, but he never proved his worth at Old Trafford.
In 92 appearances for MU, Antony only scored 12 goals and had 5 assists, a very modest number compared to the record transfer fee. But since joining Betis, Antony has "transformed". With the goal against Lyon, he has 15 goals and 10 assists after only 36 matches, an efficiency that has surprised fans.
On social media, fans have mocked MU. One account wrote: "Does MU regret Antony yet?". Another account commented: "Antony is a bargain for Betis and a pain for MU."
British media called this a "hard-to-heal wound" for MU, when a player who was once considered a failure in the Premier League is now shining brightly in Spain.
