The Red Devils thrashed Frank Lampard's wasteful Blues to clinch their return to the top table of European football with one game remaining.
Erik ten Hag worries that Manchester United's winger Antony sustained a "serious" injury as they thrashed Chelsea to achieve their "main objective" of qualifying for the Champions League.
The Red Devils thrashed Frank Lampard's wayward Blues 4-1 at Old Trafford on Thursday night to clinch their return to the top table of European football with one game remaining.
Marcus Rashford, Casemiro, Anthony Martial, Bruno Fernandes, and Joao Felix all scored on a night that saw Antony depart on a stretcher in the first half.
When asked about the Brazilian international, Ten Hag responded, "I don't know. He came off, as everyone saw.
"I can assure you that it's serious, but we need to wait at least 24 hours before learning more about the extent of his injury,"
According to Ten Hag's remarks, Antony might be forced to miss the FA Cup final on June 3 against Manchester City, while Luke Shaw might need to be evaluated after being replaced due to a rumored back problem.
He said, "We have to wait. "Antony seemed concerned, but we are unsure of the situation. We also have to wait for Shaw. Tomorrow will reveal more.
For a United team already without Lisandro Martinez, Marcel Sabitzer, and Donny van de Beek for the FA Cup final, their absence would be devastating.
The icing on top of what Ten Hag considers to have had been a "successful season" would be a victory over City.
You must qualify in the first four, he insisted, adding, "I always have high expectations of myself and I think this club belongs in the Champions League."
"But this league is very powerful, and there are many clubs and teams vying for positions, and they are all able to do it because they have large budgets and strong squads.
