‘In football it is eat or get eaten,’ says Ten Hag after Brentford winManager says McTominay ‘would give his life for the badge’
Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United’s breathless added-time comeback victory over Brentford to act as “fuel” for the dressing room and to make it the turning point in their season.
United had been heading for a third successive home league loss and a seventh from 11 games as they trailed after Mathias Jensen’s 26th-minute opener. But Scott McTominay, on as a substitute two minutes before the end of normal time, scored in the third and seventh minute of added time to take United to 12 points from eight matches.
