Ten Hag Explains Man Utd’s Defeat to West Ham

Ten Hag Blames Controversial Penalty for Man Utd’s Loss to West Ham

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has expressed his frustration with the controversial penalty decision that led to his team’s 2-1 defeat against West Ham United.

The Red Devils took the lead through a goal from Crysencio Summerville, but a late penalty awarded to West Ham, converted by Jarrod Bowen, proved to be the decisive moment of the match.

Ten Hag argued that the penalty decision was unfair, claiming that Matthijs de Ligt had not committed a foul on Danny Ings. He also expressed disappointment with his team’s inability to capitalize on their early lead and maintain control of the game.

Despite the setback, Ten Hag praised his team’s resilience in fighting back to equalize. However, the late penalty proved to be a costly blow for Manchester United.
