Erik ten Hag was pleased with his team’s performance in the 2-0 win against Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League.
Jadon Sancho showed his class, scoring a wonderful goal. Cristiano Ronaldo finally opened his account for the new season by scoring the penalty.
Although there were aspects to improve, especially in the second half, Ten Hg was satisfied with the result.
In his post-match interview, he stated:
“Tough start. The rival played very direct, went for the second ball, and won too many in the first few minutes. But after a certain period, we played better.”
“So you say we can play between the lines; we put depth into our game and scored a great goal. Then we take control of the game.”
