Ten Hag slams Manchester United’s mistakes

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag was not pleased with the overall defensive mistakes made by his players, notably from goalie Andre Onana.

The Dutchman believes the team’s lacklustre display encouraged our defeat to the Bavarians who were not at their usual best.

“We have to make our luck,” said Erik ten Hag in his post-match interview after watching Manchester United lose 4-3 to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

“It’s about the team. Mistakes will be made but you have to bounce back as a team. We have to believe that even if there are mistakes we can make a comeback.

“Before [Andre] Onana’s mistake, it was too easy for the opponent to make a shot.

“Of course, he [Onana] knows he has to stop the ball but the way Sane came through can’t be. And the second goal it’s almost similar over the other side, how easy players come through our box and to finish, it can’t be.”

Thomas Tuchel’s side was far from their best, but they took their chances, while United floundered despite making a strong start to the game.
