Ten Hag thinks they controlled the game and scored a fantastic goal; Vieira thinks they deserved it

In the 7th round of the Premier League , Manchester United was tied 1-1 by Crystal Palace . Manchester United coach Ten Hag accepted an interview with Sky Sports after the game.


Ten Hag thought they controlled the game and scored a brilliant goal. He wouldn't say their performance was top notch, but okay. They controlled the game and needed to invest more in the second half and if it was 2-0 it would be game over. It's hard to react if the ball is lost a minute or two before the end of the game. They need to learn their lesson and invest more for the arrival of the second goal.


Ten Hag thought Verhorst was doing well and needed to get used to their game, he took the short briefing straight away and didn't know how they played, and he attended their last training session in the final days.


Regarding the outcome of the game, Ten Hag said that things have happened and there is no way to change them. They look forward to moving forward. Focusing on Arsenal now and making the right plans, the players need to make sure they are ready.

Palace boss Patrick Vieira, on the other hand, thinks they deserve the point and it will be challenging against a really good team. They put pressure on their opponents in the last 15 minutes, Olis scored a free kick, it was not easy and their hard work paid off.


Vieira said he saw good organisation, teamwork and communication, they maintained discipline and that helped them stay in the game. This game is against big teams and it takes luck to stay in the game and they inspired that luck. The team still needs to grow and keep the faith, the important thing is that they didn't lose the game today.
