The match between Manchester United and Twente ended in a 1-1 draw, leaving the Premier League giants disappointed. Christian Eriksen, who scored a brilliant goal in the 35th minute, was criticized for his post-match interview where he admitted that Twente seemed more determined to win than his own team.
Eriksen's goal had given United the lead and they were on track for a victory in their first European fixture. However, his mistake in giving the ball away allowed Twente to equalize in the second half. United pushed for a winner in the remaining 20 minutes, but Twente's strong defense proved to be a challenge for them.
In his interview with TNT Sports, Eriksen was honest about the team's performance, saying that they were disappointed and should have done better. He also acknowledged that Twente appeared to want the win more than United, which was a concern for the team.
His comments did not sit well with pundits Owen Hargreaves and Karen Carney, who felt that a team like Manchester United should always have the desire to win, especially when playing at home. They also noted that the team lacked a ruthless edge, which was evident in their performance.
United's manager, Erik ten Hag, also shared his disappointment with the team's performance. He felt that they dropped their level in the second half and made a costly mistake that led to the equalizer. He stressed the importance of consistency and finishing off the game when in the lead.
After two consecutive draws, United will be looking to get back to winning ways in their upcoming match against Tottenham. The team will need to regroup and work on their weaknesses to avoid dropping points in the future.
