Man City Not Tired Of Beating MU, Erik Ten Hag: The Most Disappointing Defeat

JAKARTA - Manchester United still cannot outperform the rivals of one city of Manchester City. In the Manchester Derby at the OLd Trafford Stadium, Sunday, October 29 evening WIB, Man City finished Manchester United 3-0. The defeat that manager Erik ten Hag called was the most disappointing in his career.

Derby at home is proof that MU is still below Man City. Even though many managers have changed since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure, United still cannot outperform their rivals.

Not only that, the Man City trophy achievement was also much more after the Ferguson era. MU has never won a Premier League trophy again. Meanwhile, The Cityzens have regularly won it.

The derby match is actually a test for MU whether it has consistently won or just luck. Yes, MU managed to win in the last three matches in various competitions.

A win full of dramas both against Brentford and FC Copenhagen in the Champions League.

However, that capital was still not enough when they hosted Man City, whose level was already different. Evidently, MU failed to pass the real test.

They still can't beat their rivals. Manchester remains blue and has not changed red.

For MU, this is the fifth defeat of 10 matches in domestic competition. The bad result made the Red Devils still stuck in eighth place with point 15.

They are starting to find it difficult to enter the top four and 11 points adrift of leaders, Tottenham Hotspur.

Not only that, Old Trafford is no longer the Theater of Dreams for the hosts but has turned into a theater of nightmare aka a nightmare theater.

The reason is that MU is used to losing at Old Trafford. This season in domestic competitions, MU has lost three times to six home matches.

Not only losing to the elite team, even a team like Brighton and Hove Albion and Crystal Palace could have humiliated MU in front of their own supporters.

The defeat in the derby also made Ten Hag feel disappointed. He even called the defeat the worst thing while handling a club.

"Of course this is the most disappointing defeat. When you lose in the derby and how we lost, this is really disappointing," said Ten Hag.

"In the first half, we played well with executions that were no less good even though we didn't score. But [Man City's penalty] changed the moment," he said again.

Meanwhile, Man City manager Pep Guardiola shows his satisfaction in defeating Manchester United at Old Trafford.

"The second goal that really helps us. It always feels special to win at Old Trafford," said Guardiola, who succeeded in making MU never mean anything every time he met Man City.

If the defeat made MU still not move from the middle board, on the other hand Man City managed to improve his position.

They moved up to third place with 24 points. The same as Arsenal who are in second place. Man City lost the goal difference and failed to shift the Gunners.

In that match, MU started well. But the situation changed after Man City got a penalty in the 26th minute.

Penalti diberikan setelah striker MU Rasmus Hojlund melakukan pelanggaran terhadap Rodri. Ekseksi ditundakan dengan baik oleh striker Erling Haaland. Skor 1-0 untuk Man City bertahan sampai akhir babak pertama.

In the second half, Man City outperformed MU in possession. They created many chances and repeatedly threatened Andre Onana's goal.

However, Onana still failed to stem Haaland's attack, which appeared on fire. The game was only running for four minutes, his goal conceded again. Haaland successfully completed a pass from Bernardo Silva

MU sudah sulit mengganggu Man City. Tim tamu yang mendominasi membangun keunggulan setelah Phil Foden mencetak gol menit 80. Man City menutup derby dengan skor 3-0.
