JAKARTA - Manchester United (MU) failed to steal points when they visited Emirates Stadium, Arsenal headquarters, in the continuation week of the English Premier League 2023/2024, Sunday, September 3. In that match, the Red Devils were put on 1-3.

MU was actually able to balance Arsenal's game. It was proven that both teams played 1-1 until the match was about to end.

The visitors' goal, which was scored by Marcus Rashford, was rewarded by Martin Odegaard's goal from the home side.

However, two goals in the final minutes pinned by Declan Rice (90+6) and Gabriel Jesus (90+11) forced Bruno Fernandes and his friends to bite their fingers.

"I think we played a very good game. But everything was beyond our will and then, of course, you didn't win the game and if (we) had a little bit more luck, then we could have won the game," Ten Hag said after the game., reported from the club's official website.

Ten Hag considered that the misfortune occurred when Alejandro Garnacho's goal was disallowed due to offside. Not to mention Gabriel Magalhaes' violation of Rasmus Hojlund which did not result in a penalty.

Dia juga menyoroti pelanggaran Magalhaes kepada Jonny Evans yang tidak diberikan sehingga berbuah gol bagi Arsenal melalui Declan Rice.

"You saw the game but there was no offside (gol Garnacho), the wrong corner. It was a penalty on Hojlund and then we conceded Rice's goal where there was a foul on Jonny Evans. It's very clear and real," Ten Hag explained, quoted by Antara, Monday, September 4.

Despite losing, the Dutch manager remains proud of his team's performance because there are several positive things and will evaluate the defeat in order to perform better in the rest of the season.

"We definitely have to develop. But you know, and also what we saw last year, we can beat everyone," Ten Hag said.
