United lucky with Bournemouth win, says ten Hag

Erik ten Hag was happy to see Manchester United get a crucial victory over Bournemouth in the recent Premier League encounter. However, the Manchester United boss claims that the Red Devils were quite lucky to get the three points against the Cherries.

The victory has put United level on points with Newcastle, who went on to get a draw with Arsenal in their league match. Marcus Rashford, Luke Shaw, and Casemiro came up with the goals for United. After the game, Erik ten Hag claimed that United could have certainly dropped points in this encounter if not for some lucky intervention.

United go up against Everton in the FA Cup meeting with the Merseyside outfit on Friday night. Even though Everton have only picked up one victory in the recent 10 league outings, Erik ten Hag does not expect an easy encounter against Frank Lampard’s team.
