Ten Hag satisfied with Man Utd FA Cup win at Wigan

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag was pleased with their FA Cup Third Round win at Wigan Athletic.

Diogo Dalot and Bruno Fernandes, from the spot, struck as United 2-0 at the DW stadium on Monday night.

Ten Hag said, "The FA Cup is all about winning, it is knockout. You want to finish the job. That is what I said in the dressing room 'job done'.

"In the first half I think we created five or six very good chances. I think it was very good football. We should have taken more, but if you don't score you have to stay focused and I think we did that tonight.

"You can't always say why you've missed chances. There were some good attacks and good chances, but we didn't take them, but the way we created them was OK."

On if there was enough contact for the penalty, he added: "I haven't seen. I can't tell. It was too far away from my position."
