Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, claimed that his team had a problem with finishing. But after Scott McTominay’s injury-time goal gave United a 1-0 Europa League victory over Cypriots Omonia Nicosia on Thursday, he praised his team’s confidence.
In the Group E match, United had 34 shots and controlled possession, but it remained scoreless until substitute McTominay scored in the 93rd minute.
“I would say that the performance was strong up until the box, but the finishing was obviously weak. I hope we have the targets for the upcoming week saved “Ten Hag told journalists.
On October 27, United will host Sheriff before concluding its group stage with a journey to Spain to take on Real Sociedad on November 3.
