After the historic defeat of the Liverpool against Manchester Unitedby the incredible score of 7 to 0, in a match valid for Premier League. Erik Ten Hag demonstrated all his dissatisfaction with his team’s cast, even stating that the defeat was conditioned by a lack of professionalism of the athletes on the field.
The Dutchman detonated, mainly, the team’s performance in the second stage, when they conceded six of the seven goals. “It’s pretty obvious, it wasn’t professional. In the first half, I think we were the better team. I was really surprised that, after the break, we turned the game over so quickly. How we conceded the goals is really annoying.”said the trainer.
The coach made a point of highlighting the third goal conceded by the Red Devils, just three minutes after the second. “The third was a counter-attack with unprofessional decisions: no following, no running, going forward, opening up space in midfield, no turning back. I don’t think this is Manchester United. It was really bad”said the commander.
The score went down in history and broke the record established within the confrontation itself. The North West Derby, as the classic is called, has almost 130 years of history and surpassed the 7-1 that Manchester United applied to Liverpool, at Anfield, more than 120 years ago, in 1895.
