Ten Hag gives reasons for defeat to Arsenal

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has reacted to his side’s latest defeat to Arsenal which ended in a 3-1 scoreline.

Ten Hag in a post-match statement blamed the defeat on referee decisions.

The defeat to Arsenal is the Red Devils’ second loss in four fixtures at the Emirates.

Marcus Rashford gave Man Utd the lead, but Martin Odegaard equalised almost immediately.

Alejandro Garnacho saw his goal ruled out for offside late in the game, while Rasmus Hojlund saw his penalty claims waved off.

Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus went on to score a goal each towards the end of the match to give the Gunners the win.

Ten Hag in his statement gave the key incidents in the match that decided the result.

“It was not an offside (for Garnacho). It was the wrong angle. And there was a penalty on Højlund and a foul on Evans (for Rice’s goal). The performance was right. Everything went against us,” he told Sky Sports.
