Daniel James was brilliant for Wales vs Switzerland earlier today, with the Manchester United fans absolutely loving it.
Manchester United have several representatives at these European Championships, with the first coming in the form of Wales’ Daniel James.
The speedy winger has drifted in and out of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side since his arrival from Swansea City two years ago. For his country, however, it’s a different story.
James is amongst the first names on the team-sheet and his display against Switzerland showed exactly why. United’s #21 was the shining light for Wales’ attack. Pace on the counter attack, precision in his passing and a real directness that gave his opponents all sorts of trouble.
His moment of the match came in the second half, as James floated an inch-perfect delivery into the box for the Wales equaliser. From that point, you felt as if his Wales could go on and win the game though sadly, United’s winger would be hooked shortly after. It’s fair to say he didn’t agree with the decision.
Outings like this from James show exactly why he’s playing for a club like Manchester United. Is he going to start every game and be perfect for every situation? No. But utilise his talents in matches where it suits, United do have themselves a player who can make a positive difference on the field.
As you’d expect, United fans would react in their droves as the Reds star put in a quality display for his country at EURO 2020. We’ve compiled some of our favourites below.
