The are jubitaling as if the win the Champions League, Let’s see how they win the Premier League, VAR cheated, or they won’t have a tongue to celebrate now: Manchester United Manager Erig Ten Hag Send Strong message warning to Fabian Hürzeler after VAR rough decision to give Brighton the win yesterday
After citing an injury, Mason Mount was replaced half-time during Manchester United’s loss against Brighton.
United lost 2-1 on the south coast; Brighton’s difference came from Joao Pedro’s 95th-minute header. And an injury issue for Mount, who was taken off after the break for Joshua Zirkzee, further compounded the unsatisfactory outcome.
After a £55million purchase from Chelsea because to injury, Mount made only 20 appearances in all competitions last season. Thanks to pre-season, the 25-year-old managed to start their campaign completely fit; nonetheless, Erik ten Hag delivered some unfortunate news in his post-match press conference.
Ten Hag stated, “It was pushed,” when asked why Mount withdrew. “He highlighted a problem, and I did not want to gamble on it. How much of a concern this time raises for me?
“But our bench is really nice. Do not hesitate; if you can bring Zirkzee, bring him off and you will bring a guy with effect. Josh had an outstanding game. Mount is a question for United’s next game against Liverpool at Old Trafford next Sunday; his knock is yet unknown.
Thanks to Danny Welbeck’s tap-in from Kaoru Mitoma’s cross, Brighton was 1-0 at half-time and may have pushed Ten Hag’s hand with substitutions nevertheless. After scoring the season-opener against Fulham last weekend, Zirkzee was called upon and United leveled in the second half.
Amad ran in behind and equalised via a deflection before United seemed to have gone 2-1 ahead via replacement Alejandro Garnacho. Replays, however, revealed that Garnacho’s attempt struck an offside Zirkzee before it crossed the line, thereby requiring VAR to rule the goal off.
