Erik Ten Hag Frustrated Over Foul
Erik Ten Hag was angry over the foul not given in Unitedâs favor which would have been a penalty for the united.
âAt 2-1, it was a clear foul on Marcus Rashford,â said Ten Hag. âWe can discuss if it’s inside the box or outside the box, but definitely, it’s a red card.
“I asked the referee why. He said it was outside the box and that it was no foul. The linesman and referee were in a very good position to see and I think we had VAR.
