Paul Scholes has slammed Erik ten Hag’s decision-making in the second half of Manchester United’s Europa League game against Real Sociedad.
United picked up a 1-0 win over the Spanish side, with Alejandro Garnacho’s first goal for the club the difference between the two sides. But Real Sociedad still finished the game the happier of the two teams because they topped Group E on goal difference.
Ten Hag’s side needed a 2-0 victory to leapfrog their opponents and avoid a play-off game against a team dropping down from the Champions League in February. Instead, they now face a potentially tricky game against the likes of Juventus or Barcelona to stay in the Europa League.
