EPL: Ten Hag explains Man Utd's 1-0 loss to Arsenal |
Lacking captain Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford, Ten Hag remarked: “Today we did. Missing seven key players, we still competed with one of the league's top teams.
Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, attributed their 1-0 defeat against Arsenal on Sunday to injuries and lapses in focus.
This marked the Red Devils' second consecutive loss this week.
Leandro Trossard netted the sole goal at Old Trafford, propelling the Gunners to the lead.
Kai Havertz, kept onside by Casemiro, assisted Trossard's goal with his cross.
Lacking captain Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford, Ten Hag remarked: “Today we did. Missing seven key players, we still competed with one of the league's top teams.
“It boils down to execution; lacking the correct mindset and press makes it simple for opponents. It was a minor error by a midfielder that led to severe repercussions.”
