Home supporters were not pleased with their manager's decision on Saturday as Manchester United took on Brighton in the Premier League. Erik ten Hag was met with loud jeers when he replaced Rasmus Hojlund, who had been the team's brightest option during the match.
The £72million signing from Atalanta had started his first game for the club and was desperately seeking his first goal for United. Things looked promising when his first goal was chalked off due to Marcus Rashford's cross being judged to have gone out of play.
Unfortunately, Danny Welbeck opened the scoring for Brighton after 20 minutes and Pascal Gross doubled their lead eight minutes into the second-half. With United trailing by two goals, ten Hag made a double substitution just after the hour mark, replacing Casemiro with youngster Hannibal Mejbri and Anthony Martial coming on for the young Dane.
Things went from bad to worse as Joao Pedro scored a third, but Mejbri was able to pull one back, scoring his first goal for the club. More to follow.
