Premier League giants Manchester United kicked off their pre-season campaign against Danish side Rosenborg. They fielded some experienced players such as Casemiro, Jonny Evans, Mason Mount and Marcus Rashford while a few fresh faces including Radek Vitek and Ethan Williams were also involved. The Red Devils lost 1-0 with what was virtually the last kick of the game, sparking a frosty assessment from Ten Hag post-match.
Speaking to MUTV, Ten Hag said: "The result is not secondary. Our performance as a team is by far not good enough. This is not the standard for top football. We can’t be match fit at this moment. They have a much higher fitness level but we are Manchester United we must perform better."
Many fans will say the result is irrelevant in pre-season, but as Ten Hag pointed out, a team like Man Utd should always be pushing to beat the opposition.
