Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag believes that his team still need to work on the psychological side of football in order to overcome past traumas.
Ten Hag was speaking after United squandered a 2-0 lead over Sevilla on Thursday night to draw 2-2 in their Europa League quarter-final first leg.
Marcel Sabitzer had put the Reds in control of the contest in the opening stages with a quickfire brace. But a Tyrell Malacia own goal followed by Harry Maguire inadvertently diverting the ball into the net in stoppage time means that United still have plenty of work to do in Spain next week to progress to the semi-finals.
Assessing what went wrong at Old Trafford in midweek, Ten Hag admitted that United still had work to do to get back to the top of European football.
