Alexis Sanchez After Chile Goal: 'For Six Weeks I Felt Worse Than I Ever Have'

Manchester United forward Alexis Sanchez has said he "felt worse than I ever have before" in the six weeks before Chile's 4-0 win over Japan on Monday.

The 30-year-old scored one goal—his first in five months—and made another in the emphatic victory at the Copa America, helping the defending champions get their campaign off to the perfect start.

After a torrid season with the Red Devils, it would have been a relief for Sanchez to get back among the goals. Afterwards he reflected on what has been a challenging time for him, per The Independent.
