Erik ten Hag unhappy with three decisions in Manchester United defeat to Arsenal
03.09.2023 - 19:11 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Erik ten Hag says 'many decisions' went against Manchester United in their 3-1 defeat to Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.
United fell to their second away defeat of the new Premier League season after Arsenal came from behind to inflict yet another defeat on the road. Marcus Rashford had given them the lead in the first-half, but it lasted just 25 seconds as the hosts hit back through Martin Odegaard.
Arsenal were the better side throughout and thought they had a penalty when Kai Havertz went down in the box, but a VAR check saw it overturned.
United then looked to have won it late on when Alejandro Garnacho netted a dramatic goal on the break, but another VAR check ruled it out for offside.

Ten Hag's side were moments away from a good point but fell apart in the final minutes when Declan Rice fired in from a corner and Gabriel Jesus added a third on the counter-attack.
It left a bitter taste in the mouth, and after the match, Ten Hag questioned the officials over a number of decisions they made throughout the match.
"Yeah. You're already telling and have seen the same, it was similar. The performance was right, but the result was not on our side. Many decisions were against us," he said at his post-match press conference.
"Let's start with the penalty given but rejected, not get booked for it, then foul on Hojlund in the penalty area, not even by the VAR, and then disallowed goal from Garnacho; I think wrong angle, and I think it's onside. The final goal—how can they allow that goal? It's a clear foul on Jonny Evans from the shot by Rice; it's a lot."
