Erik ten Hag could not hide his dissatisfaction at his makeshift Manchester United side’s 4-2 friendly loss against Cadiz on Wednesday.
In their first fixture since last month’s late win at Fulham saw them break off for the World Cup on a winning note, United found themselves two goals down within 14 minutes in southern Spain. Goals from Carlos Garcia-Die Sanchez and Anthony Lozano caught the Red Devils cold in the early stages.
Anthony Martial’s penalty halved the deficit soon after with youngster Kobbie Mainoo levelling the score three minutes after the break, before goals from Ruben Sobrino and Tomas Alarcon gave the home side the victors over a youthful second-half United team.
