“Manchester United” on Tuesday not only ended the season in the UEFA Champions League with a loss to Bayern Munich, but also did not continue the season in the Europa League.

The “Red Devils” not only lost to the German champions, but also to the teams of “Copenhagen” and “Galatasaray.”

After the loss to Bayern, United coach Erik ten Hag praised the team's performance and said that his goal now is to return the team to this tournament.

“Today the team played very well. We did a great job in defense and pressed the opponents. However, we could not fully capitalize on the chances we created and it felt like we were playing against a top-level team.”

“But if Bayern doesn’t play good games, their individual brilliance can create magical moments. That's exactly what happened.

We want more stability. As a coach, I must improve the team and help them progress, but players should not be afraid of responsibility. We must move forward together.

The players gave their all on the field, you saw it. I want to praise my players for how we played against the strong Bayern team.

I have no regrets about anything that happened in the Champions League. Our goal is always to reach the knockout stages, but now we must learn from this experience.

“We want to return to the Champions League, so we will do everything to get there,” E. ten Hagas said in an interview with “TNT Sports.”
