‘A lot is going against us’

Despite the goalkeeper’s howler, Man United’s loss to Bayern Munich was not the fault of Andre Onana, according to Erik ten Hag

Manchester United’s coach Erik ten Hag urged his team to recover from Wednesday’s 4-3 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

United fell behind early in the game as Andre Onana misplayed a relatively harmless attempt from Leroy Sane, and then fell further behind after Serge Gnabry scored four minutes later. Casemiro’s late double was meaningless when United’s Rasmus Hojlund scored an equalizer, but Harry Kane converted a penalty and Mathys Tel added a fourth.

United have now lost three in a row and four times this season; coach Ten Hag believes his squad deserved at least a point in Germany.

Disappointed because we need to keep figҺting for a playoff spot. He told TNT Sports that scoring three goals against Bayern Munich would force them to settle for a tie. The odds are stacked against us at the moment. Making our own good fortune is on us. The last three teams we’ve played have all been really good.

Goalkeeper Onana took responsibility for his side’s loss, but coach Ten Hag said, “It’s good he’s doing that but it’s about the team.” Ten Hag is a Cameroon international. You need to learn from your mistakes and move forward as a group. If one person messes up, the whole thing is over. As a unit, we must maintain faith in our ability to overcome any obstacle. Tonight, we put it on display.When United plays Bunrley this coming Saturday, they’ll be hoping to break their current losing run.
