Read our privacy policy Erik ten Hag was delighted by his players’ show of character and quality against Real Betis as Manchester United bounced back from their seven-goal shellacking at Liverpool with a Europa League win. Sunday’s loss equalled United’s heaviest ever defeat and Ten Hag stuck with the same starting line-up that lost at Liverpool as they looked to bounce back in the Europa League against Betis. But you can’t ignore all the 22 games before where this team played massively good.” Ten Hag admits he was “curious” to know how the Old Trafford faithful would react four days on from the Liverpool loss but was “pleased by the response from the crowd to the team”. “That’s true and he knows that but there’s always small margins.” Betis boss Manuel Pellegrini admitted United were “very much superior” by the end of the game and could have ended with more.
