'Really enjoyed' - Erik ten Hag praises two Manchester United players after Brentford win

20.10.2024 - 04:39 manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Erik ten Hag "really enjoyed" Marcus Rashford's performance in Manchester United's win against Brentford. Rashford has had a mixed start to the season, having failed to score in United's first four games amid scrutiny over his role in the side.

The 26-year-old then scored four goals in six games but he was bizarrely substituted at half-time in the 3-3 Europa League draw with Porto, despite scoring United's first goal and creating their second.

Ten Hag moved Rashford to the right-hand side against Brentford and he provided a pinpoint cross for Alejandro Garnacho to equalise in the 47th minute.
