Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag, speaking to TNT Sports: "We kept them alive, 1-0 up, controlling the game you have to be consistent and keep going. In the second half we dropped the level, gave the goal away.

"We didn't finish it off, we had to go for the second goal and so they stay alive and we get punished with a mistake from ourselves."

On whether the goal was due to a system error or individual mistakes: "The goal, it's team. A player of Twente can dribble through the pitch without stopping, we can't give a goal away like this.

"We have seen again you have to keep going for the whole game, once 1-0 up you have to keep going, go for the second."

On the Europa League: "It’s the first game, it’s very important you get a win."
