Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag has come out to say that he feels Alejandro Garnacho’s goal should have stood. He also revealed that Rasmus Hojlund deserved a penalty in the team’s loss to Arsenal, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he believes his players played a very good game at the Emirates stadium, but everything went against the team in the end.
Erik added that MUFC even conceded a goal that had a clear foul on Jonny Evans in the buildup.
His words, “I thought we played a very good game but everything went against us. It was not offside [for Garnacho]. It was the wrong angle. It was a penalty on Hojlund, then we concede a goal that’s a foul on Jonny Evans – clear and obvious.”
WOW.
Alejandro Garnacho Ferreyra (born 1 July 2004) is a professional footballer who plays as a winger for Premier League club Manchester United and the Argentina national team.
Garnacho joined Manchester United’s youth system from Atlético Madrid in October 2020. He won the FA Youth Cup and the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award in May 2022. The month prior, he had made his first-team debut at the age of 17.
Garnacho is eligible to play for his country of birth, Spain, and Argentina, as his mother is Argentine. He made three appearances for the Spain under-18 team in 2021.
In March 2023, he was called up once again to the senior Argentina team for two friendly matches against Panama and Curaçao, but had to withdraw from the squad after suffering an ankle injury. He made his debut for the senior team on 15 June 2023, during a friendly against Australia at Workers’ Stadium, coming on as a substitute for Nicolás González during the second half of the game.
