Manchester United's Struggles Continue: Opponents and Supporters Mock Ten Hag and Team After 3-3 Draw Against FC Porto
Manchester United faced yet another disappointing result in their Europa League campaign yesterday, playing out a 3-3 draw against FC Porto. While the match had its thrilling moments, it was overshadowed by the ongoing struggles of Erik ten Hag’s squad, who now find themselves at the center of criticism from both rivals and even some of their own supporters.
The Red Devils started the game brightly, with Marcus Rashford giving them the lead early on. However, defensive errors allowed Porto to capitalize, and by halftime, the score was 2-2, with Porto's goals coming from Mehdi Taremi and Evanilson. Bruno Fernandes briefly restored United’s lead with a clinical finish, but a late equalizer from Porto saw the game end in a dramatic draw.
Opposition fans quickly took to social media, mocking Manchester United for their inability to hold onto leads. Many pointed fingers at Ten Hag, questioning his tactical choices and the team's overall lack of cohesion. “It’s like watching a mid-table team trying to survive in the Europa League,” read one post, while others sarcastically praised United for managing to “scrape a draw” against what they considered weaker opposition.
Even some Manchester United supporters expressed frustration, with many criticizing the team's inconsistent performances and poor defensive organization. “This isn’t the United we know,” one fan lamented.
Ten Hag, already under immense pressure, will need to find a way to restore faith in his project, as Manchester United’s chances of advancing in the competition hang in the balance after yet another lackluster performance.
Bruno Fernandes received a controversial red card in Manchester United's Europa League clash against FC Porto yesterday, leaving his team down to 10 men and intensifying their struggles, ultimately contributing to a disappointing 3-3 draw. His dismissal sparked debate among fans and critics alike.
