MU manager , Erik Ten Hag, looks quite satisfied with the draw achieved by Manchester United at the headquarters of the strong team Barcelona in the Europa League. The Dutch coach also highlighted the leadership of referee Maurizio Mariani in the match.

After the match, Ten Hag said that at the start of the match, his team had difficulty penetrating Barca’s defense. However, according to him afterwards the Red Devils (nicknamed MU ) were able to dictate the game. “I think we dictated the game. Apart from about 15 minutes in the first half we had some difficulties but the rest of the time we dictated the game,” Erik ten Hag told BT Sport .

Like the Champions League

The former Ajax coach acknowledged the overall quality of the thrilling match and was impressed by the number of chances created by Man United’s players in the game. “We had so many chances so I was a bit disappointed at half-time it was 0-0, we should have scored and the chances they had we created ourselves.” “But I think it was a great game, two teams attacking each other, I think it’s really Champions League quality, so I really enjoyed the game. We have to finish at Old Trafford.”

The Referee Annoys

However, on the same occasion Ten Hag was very angry with the referee’s decision not to give Man United a free kick for a clear violation of Marcus Rashford. Rashford was a thorn in Barca’s side throughout the game and appeared to be brought down by Jules Kounde with a shot on target, but referee Maurizio Mariani allowed play to go on. “I think the referee had a big influence in this game. It was a foul on Rashy. So it was a big influence, not only for this game, in this round. No way, the referee can’t make a lot of mistakes like that.”

Protests Marcus Rashford

On the other hand, Marcus Rashford himself was also confused by the referee Mariani’s decision. “It was a very important moment in the game,” he said. “I touched it past him and my foot was in front of the ball, Jules Kounde hit my leg and it was a clear contact. It wasn’t a penalty but 100 per cent a foul for me.”
