Manchester United forward Antony has admitted it was difficult to sleep after his side were humiliated by Liverpool.
The former Ajax man started at Anfield last Sunday as United slumped to their joint-heaviest defeat in their history before beating Real Betis 4-1 in the Europa League on Thursday night.
The win came after a week in which media and pundits had heavily criticising Erik ten Hag's side for the way they fell apart in the second half of the match against Liverpool as they went on to concede six goals.

The United attacker spoke after scoring in the win over Betis at Old Trafford. Anthony said: "We came from an extremely hurtful defeat and it was hard to sleep that day. But in football you can't cry about the past. We know that result is never acceptable.
“It was important to show a reaction [against Betis]. I was very happy to see the fans showing their support.
"There's always 70,000 or more fans in this stadium, it's impressive. They are our fuel. We will put this club where it deserves to be."
