Manuel Akanji: ‘The first goal is a joke it can be allowed’
“He runs for 30 metres, he’s chasing the ball. It’s clearly offside. In the situation, I played him [Rashford] offside, but he plays until the last second. I understand he doesn’t touch the ball, but for me it is clearly offside.”“The decision is the referee’s, the VAR, [but] our defenders make a line [for Rashford],” he said. “If we know it’s Fernandes we don’t make the line, we follow the action, and after the action the interference for Eddy.
“This is the decision in this stadium with the referee and the VAR. After conceding a goal we cannot concede the next one, this is the most important detail we have to improve in the future.” “The fans may dream but we are not, we have to keep our feet on the ground and face that our game has a lot to improve. It can’t happen that after half-time we are losing so much control in the game.”
“He knows that in football you have to suffer and sacrifice and have painful moments, especially a player like he is,” Ten Hag said of Rashford. “He is unstoppable and opponents will go tough against him but he keeps going and he got rewarded and the team got a reward.”
