Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has jumped to the defense of his defender, Harry Maguire, following a horrific show during their second-leg Europa defeat to Sevilla.
The quarter-final match ended 3-0 in favour of the Spanish side and Maguire was at fault for the first goal the team conceded in the eighth minute. His undefined pass at the edge of the box got intercepted by Youssef En-Nesyri, who netted the opening goal.
However, Ten Hag has defended him, insisting that the England international is an example for the team.
He said;
“He has an important role, he is the captain, he leads and he communicates with the manager, motivates the team, he’s the example in the training space.”
