Erik ten Hag: 'Man Utd can be even better' 2
Marcus Rashford’s double and rookie Antony’s debut goal helped Man Utd beat Arsenal at home at Old Trafford on the evening of September 4.
The fact that the team showed high fighting spirit made coach Erik ten Hag satisfied.
Ten Hag waves to the audience after the win over Arsenal.
The $100 million contract Antony debuted in the biggest match of the season, and integrated well, even opening the scoring in the 35th minute with a left foot shot in Arsenal’s penalty area.
Man Utd started the season poorly but stood up strongly.
After the 0-4 defeat to Brentford, Man Utd reorganized the defense, with Malacia replacing Luke Shaw on the left wing, Martinez replacing Harry Maguire in the center.
Antony (left) is considered by Ten Hag to be the missing puzzle piece at Man Utd.
Rashford was the player who contributed the most to Man Utd in this match, with a double goal and an assist for Antony to open the score.
The 52-year-old coach also praised Malacia, who played well against Bukayo Saka.
Ultimately, the Dutch coach affirmed that this is just the beginning.
With this victory, Man Utd ranked fifth, shortening the gap with top team Arsenal to three points.
