Manchester United Held At Home By FC Twente To Start Europa League Campaign

Manchester United stuttered to a 1-1 draw at home to FC Twente in their opening Europa League game on Wednesday as Christian Eriksen scored but then made an error that led to the equaliser. The Denmark international put United ahead with a powerful first-half strike on a soaking wet night at Old Trafford before Sam Lammers equalised for Twente on 68 minutes after Eriksen was caught in possession. "We wanted more in the end, far from good enough. They looked like they wanted it more - that can't be right," Eriksen told TNT Sports.

Erik Ten Hag Frustrated By Costly Mistake In Manchester United's Europa League Draw With Twente

Erik ten Hag slammed his Manchester United flops after a costly mistake from Christian Eriksen condemned them to a 1-1 draw against FC Twente in their Europa League opener on Wednesday. Eriksen's 35th-minute blast put United ahead, but the Danish midfielder gifted Twente their second-half equaliser at Old Trafford. Sam Lammers dispossessed Eriksen, who had made a risky turn under pressure, and fired past Andre Onana in the 68th minute. United manager Ten Hag refused to single out Eriksen, instead insisting the whole team had to take responsibility for their failure to hold onto the lead.
