Erik ten Hag fears winger Antony suffered a “serious” injury as Manchester United fulfilled the “main objective” of Champions League qualification by thrashing Chelsea. The Red Devils sealed their return to European football’s top table with a game to spare by thrashing Frank Lampard’s wasteful Blues 4-1 at Old Trafford on Thursday evening. Casemiro, Anthony Martial, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford scored before Joao Felix struck a late consolation on a night that saw Antony leave on a stretcher in the first half. Asked for an update on the Brazil international, Ten Hag said: “I don’t know. Everyone has seen he came off. “I can tell you that it’s serious but we have to wait minimum 24 hours and then we know probably more about the status of his injury.” Ten Hag’s comments suggest Antony is in danger of missing the FA Cup final against Manchester City on June 3, with Luke Shaw also requiring assessment after being substituted with a reported back issue. “We have to wait,” he said. “Antony looks serious but we don’t know what it is. With Shaw, we have to wait as well. After tomorrow we know more.” Their absence would be big blows for a United side that are already without Lisandro Martinez, Marcel Sabitzer and Donny van de Beek for the FA Cup final. Beating City would be the cherry on top of what Ten Hag believes has already been a “successful season”. “I have always high expectations of myself and I think this club belongs in the Champions League, so you have to qualify in the first four,” he said. “But this league is very strong, and there are many teams, many clubs, who are competing for the position and they all can do it because they have high budgets, good squads. “We see Chelsea, they have massive, good squad with outstanding players. “So, we are happy we are in the first four. I think we played a good season in the Premier League. I would say, a very good season.” Put to Ten Hag that former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger said finishing in the top four was the equivalent of winning a trophy, Ten Hag said: “Oh, I think in the Premier League, yeah, it’s something like that. “That is, I think, the main objective of the season, to get in the Champions League. “So, therefore you have to see yourself in the top four and, as I just tried to respond, the competition is tough. “It’s many teams with really good squads, good managers, so when you are in there you’re doing a good job and your team is playing well and performing well. “I think this is for this moment the maximum, but we want more.” That hunger for more means backing is required in the summer transfer window, whoever United’s owners are. “You have to see how you come out of the transfer window,” Ten Hag added. “But if I see now I think we need more, so I don’t have so much patience. And that is one of my mistakes.” Chelsea were already guaranteed to finish in bottom half for the first time in 27 years before this club record 16th defeat in a 38-game Premier League season. Interim boss Frank Lampard was understandably downtrodden in the press conference that followed his eighth loss in 10 matches in charge. “My personal feeling? I don’t think it’s about my personal feeling, I think it’s probably about the reality of where we’re at,” he said. “I’ve said it a lot going into the game, when things are off for a period, which has been the season for us – you can trace it back to probably pre-season – and then it’s not easy to turn it. “Then when you get into a run-in against top clubs that are going for something, nothing’s a given in this game. “Mixed feelings. We played OK in parts today, there was some individual performances within the game, which I think can be nice shoots for the future if they’re worked on. “But of course the reality is when you come to Manchester United and how clinical they are in front of goal and how non-clinical we were, how we defended individually poorly in the second half, then the result can come.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Michael van Gerwen creates Premier League history by winning seventh title Fleetwood owner Andy Pilley loses civil court fight with council Chiedozie Ogbene and Alan Browne in race to make Ireland’s Euro 2024 clashes

The Minnesota Twins may have beat the Boston Red Sox on Thursday, but it’s the daughter of team manager Rocco Baldelli that people can’t stop talking about. On Thursday (22 June), Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli brought his two-year-old daughter, Louisa, into his office, where he discussed the team’s win during the postgame press conference. However, it seemed the toddler kept herself entertained by all the baseballs in the room and adorably handing each one she found to her dad. In a video shared by the Minnesota Twins Twitter account, Louisa can be seen peeking out of the corner to hand her dad baseball after baseball. Baldelli was already holding a pile of round balls, presumably brought to him by his daughter. “Baby Baldelli just wanted to play during her dad’s press conference,” they captioned the tweet. Another video captured Louisa ducking below a desk in the corner of her father’s office, where a bag of baseballs was stored. As Baldelli spoke to reporters about pitcher Joe Ryan’s shut out performance during Thursday’s game, he said “Thank you” to Louisa for each baseball. “Ok, this is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. Louisa Baldelli getting involved in the post game presser,” tweeted reporter Audra Martin. In one video shared by MLB reporter Do-Hyoung Park, Louisa’s tiny hand could also be seen peeking out from below her dad, who was already holding a pile of baseballs brought to him by his daughter. “Baseball after baseball after baseball from Louisa,” Park captioned his tweet. Fans couldn’t get enough of Louisa’s viral appearance at the press conference, while others noted how the father-daughter interaction is almost a daily occurrence for parents with toddlers. “This is adorable,” one person tweeted. “Tell me you have a toddler without telling me you have a toddler,” another user said. “All dads out there understand this and it gets you in the feels watching this,” a third person wrote. Some people were simply impressed by how many baseballs Baldelli could hold after being given each one by Louisa, writing: “I now need to know how many baseballs he can hold.” At the end of the press conference, Park reported that Baldelli was given a total of nine baseballs, sitting in a pile in his lap.
