West Ham coach David Moyes said,”Today we were as close as we’ve been. The players did a great job, we’ve not come away with anything and we deserved to. I don’t think you could ask for too much more; we turned the ball over too much in the first half but in the second we were the side who looked the more likely to score. David De Gea was fantastic, we know how good he is, and the two he’s saved today have been worldies.”
Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag said,”In this team it’s a big attitude and a winning spirit, you see that. We are improving a lot, we have to keep that process going but the fans like it. You can see a developing bond. Marcus Rashford had a great performance, we have a great academy and a great history and he represents that. It was a brilliant goal and a great milestone.”
United's fighting spirit pleased the boss 👊#MUFC || #MUNWHU
