Manchester United suffered a surprising 1-0 defeat to Rosenborg in their first pre-season match, with Noah Emmanuel Jean Holm scoring the decisive goal in the 93rd minute.
Despite fielding a squad that included notable players like Marcus Rashford, Casemiro, Mason Mount, Jonny Evans, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, United could not secure a victory.
Rosenborg not only won but also dominated the match. They had 22 shots compared to United’s 5, made more passes, had higher pass accuracy, and registered more shots on target. The Norwegian side also hit the woodwork four times.
Manchester United manager not happy with the performance
After the defeat, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag expressed his disappointment with the team’s performance, stating that it was “not good enough.”
Speaking to MUTV, ten Hag emphasised the importance of winning, even in pre-season matches.
He said:
“The result is not secondary, Of course, we play pre-season but at Man United the standard is you win games and definitely don’t lose games.
“So if you can’t win, don’t lose the game, like we did in the last second of the game. But of course, the performance is more important and the performance was below standards.
“Let’s say he (Vitek) got the opportunity from the team to make some very good saves because the performance from the team is, by far, not good enough.
“We can talk [about] everything that is bad, but I’m not that guy. I have seen and this is not the standard for top football. Top football, you have to achieve much higher standards, starts with any individual, make sure you’re fit.
“I know we can’t be match-fit in this moment, I know you need these games. The opponent is in the league, they have a much higher fitness level but we are Man United and players from Man United, a team from Man United, should perform better.”
Manchester United’s next pre-season game is against Rangers on July 20th, where they will aim to improve their performance and regain momentum.
