NTV Kenya Uses Carrick's Wild Comeback to Wake Kenya Up with A Motivational Monday Message

NTV Kenya has started the week with a photo of Michael Carrick pointing a finger to the sky while fans celebrate behind him. The broadcaster asked its followers to raise a hand if they were ready for Monday. It also shared a Swahili message saying that people who once looked down on you will one day greet you with respect.

The photo was taken during Manchester United's thrilling Premier League draw with Aston Villa at Old Trafford on Sunday. United recovered from 4-2 down thanks to two goals in injury time. The match clock in the picture shows 97 minutes, as the home crowd erupts after the equaliser.

Villa made a flying start, scoring through Alysson in the first minute and Nicolas Jackson in the fourth, before McGinn and Goretzka added two more early in the second half. United's goals came from Bruno Fernandes, Youri Tielemans, Joshua Zirkzee and Patrick Dorgu. The last two arrived in stoppage time and rescued a point that had seemed lost.

The draw did not take United out of danger. The club is still in the relegation zone, and the result leaves Carrick under pressure. United have won only one league match so far this season, a 5-2 victory over Ipswich on 30 August.

Carrick has said he has no plans to quit his job. He told reporters he will not resign after the draw. His team will face Liverpool at Anfield once the international break is over. For Kenyans heading back to work, the lesson from Old Trafford is simple: it is never over until the final whistle.
