Manchester United manager believes that his team lost to Arsenal due to refereeing mistakes
Head coach Manchester United Eric Ten Hag expressed dissatisfaction with the refereeing in the lost match against Arsenal. He believes that the referees made a mistake in some episodes, and in the case of offside when his team’s goal was canceled, the video assistants used the “wrong angle”.
“We played well. I thought we played a very good game, but everything went against us – you can’t win the game that way.”
“We needed a little more luck to win the game. It wasn’t offside [при голе Алехандро Гарначо]. It was the wrong angle.”
“Then there was a penalty at Rasmus Høilund and after that we conceded a goal that was fouled at Johnny Evans. It’s so clear and obvious.”
“You can say that you need to convert your chances and that you can’t concede a goal only with a lead. It’s all true, but I’m happy with the game.”
Recall that in the central match of the 3rd round of the English Premier League, Arsenal snatched a victory over Manchester United with a score of 3:1. Having conceded first before the break, the Gunners instantly bounced back. At the end of the second half, the guest player Garnacho scored a goal, but VAR canceled it due to a microscopic offside. Shortly thereafter, Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus brought victory to the capital club.
In the recent past, the referee of the Premier League, and now an expert analyst Mike Dean carefully considered all the controversial episodes that the Dutch coach spoke about. The Englishman came to the conclusion that his colleagues, who served the duel, in all cases did the right thing.
After this match, Arsenal scored 10 points and is fifth in the Premier League standings. Manchester United have 6 points and 11th position.
In the next round of the Premier League, Arsenal will play against Everton, while Manchester United will play against Brighton.
