"The Man Utd players felt disappointed and devastated, we understand the pain of defeat. However, I can be proud of what my students did, Man Utd played well. My team conceded 2 goals which was quite regrettable but still maintained good spirit. We could have equalized at the end of the match," coach Erik ten Hag shared with the media after the FA Cup final of the 2022/2023 season.
Being underestimated by their opponents, Man Utd's difficulties were compounded when they conceded a goal in the 13th minute with a beautiful long-range shot from Gundogan. However, Man Utd still maintained a good enough position and scored an equalizer thanks to Bruno Fernandes from the penalty spot. In the second half, the Red Devils lost again and Gundogan scored again. At the end of the match, Man Utd had consecutive chances but could not equalize.
Coach Erik ten Hag encourages Garnacho.
Coach Erik ten Hag said: "This is a successful season. Even though this match did not have a good result, we will learn many important lessons for next season. My goal is to help the team become better and I will be steadfast, defending my philosophy. We should not criticize De Gea. Man Utd are on the right track but clearly should not repeat such a loss if they want to win more titles."
Meanwhile, captain Bruno Fernandes analyzed: "We didn't start well but came back and were able to control the ball well in the first half. After Man Utd scored, some counter-attacks were better but we didn't score more goals. We conceded early in the second half and then still had other chances but we didn't and Man City deserved to win.
Man Utd were too soft and gave up too much space for the first goal but it was a classy shot. If the players were tighter they might have saved it."
