Man Utd boss Ten Hag halls Maguire for victory at Fulham

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag was happy after their 1-0 win at Fulham.

Bruno Fernandes found the winner in the 91st minute in today's early kickoff.

Ten Hag later said: "Two big defeats and then of course everyone is very unhappy. That is definitely not the standards we wanted to achieve. We wanted to improve and get a reaction and I think we saw a reaction. A good result and we are happy with it.

"Harry Maguire showed a great performance, great leadership but there were more on the pitch and it was a team. The spirit of the team, they fought for every yard, shoulder to shoulder. We have to show it every game. We have seen an improve today and we have to continue this.

"It is always about moments. Players have to realise that. This is the right answer to give. You have to focus on the one moment and top players are doing that and Bruno Fernandes is a top player.

"There is the demand to do it in every game."

He added, "We always have to win, doesn't matter who the opposition is. We have to prepare that and do the same things. Copenhagen are a good side."
