Ten Hag confirms Rashford was fouled by Walker.

  • Eric Ten Hag believes Kyle Walker definitely touched Marcus Rashford on the counter-attack.
  • The “Red Devils” didn’t commit any fouls until Manchester City scored an equalizing goal.
  • Marcus Rashford scored beautiful shot to give Manchester United the lead in the first half, but Manchester City scored three goals in a row to win 3-1.

Manchester United manager Eric Ten Hag believes Kyle Walker definitely touched Marcus Rashford on the counterattack. But didn’t get a foul until Manchester City scored an equalizing goal.

“I looked back and ask Rashy if there had contact. It might be light. But he definitely touched his body,” Ten Haag said.

“There was a lot of debate. I think there was physical contact. It was a crucial moment that would decide the game. Just like at 2-1 there was a risky tackle from the City goalkeeper.”

“It’s true that the contact was not violent. But when the other party’s speed is full like that Just the slightest touch is enough to cause you to lose your rhythm. That’s why he fell.”

Marcus Rashford scored a beautiful shot to give the “Red Devils” the lead in the first half, but Manchester City, who had almost one-sided control of the ball in this game, scored three goals in a row to win 3-1.

However, an important highlight that was talked about quite a bit was. When Manchester United had the opportunity to score more goals from Rashford’s counterattack. But he was held up by Walker using his hands until he fell. However, the referee did not whistle a foul. Before the next moment, Phil Foden scored an equalizing goal for the locals.
