Man Utd boss Ten Hag admits mixed emotions after Tottenham draw

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag was delighted with his players for their 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

Rasmus Hojlund and Marcus Rashford twice had United ahead, but Spurs fought back to earn the point.

Ten Hag said: "I am quite disappointed, when you go ahead twice and then concede two soft goals it is a bit frustrating, but you have to take it as it is.

"The attitude from the team was great, the spirit was great. We fought and gave everything. The fans were behind us and I think it was a great game for everyone to see, not just Manchester United fans, because there was a great tempo to the game.

"Senior players like Casemiro, Martinez and Luke Shaw are returning and when you add that to our team I am sure it is a strong side."

He added on Tottenham's goals: "The first is the corner and we got two warnings. There was already a ball on the by-line. You have to be more physical. That shouldn't happen. We know the quick release and we allowed them the diagonal pass that broke our whole team."
