MU outperform of
Tottenham after the Red Devils play the opener Premier League 2015/16 season by
beating Spurs 1-0 at Old Trafford (08/08). Louis Van Gaal's troops won thanks
to an own goal by Kyle Walker, the Spurs players. Although reap the full
points, Manchester United had difficulty in achieving this victory.
Van Gaal told
reporters after the game, he said that he and his public fans have seen two
teams that always apply pressure. He and his Red Army could not penetrate their
pressing and so does Tottenham. He is very happy because in the end he and his
team won.
The Dutchman
manager also said that he expects better than this. Tottenham is always
pressing and his team did not have a chance to pass the ball. That's why he and
his team need to make improvements on the lack of it.
Meanwhile,
Manchester United defender Chris Smalling also acknowledged that the Red Devils
do not play well. However, Smalling is quite happy with the victory of his team
over Tottenham Hotspur.
As Smalling told
BT Sport, he said that he and his team did not play well today, but they
managed to win and get three important points. It is important they can live a
good start.
The same thing
also expressed by squad captain, Wayne Roney. He does not deny that Manchester United were
less slick beat Tottenham Hotspur. However, Rooney still feel grateful with the
victory of his team.
For Rooney won the
game far more important than the performance of his team. Nevertheless, Rooney
asked his colleagues continue to work hard in order to play better.
As Rooney told BT
Sport, he said that the most important thing today is the victory. After
obtaining a poor start last season, they have to get the three points today.
Roney added that
he and his team have worked hard during pre-season and then they will prepare
for the match against Aston Villa next week.
Although 1 goal
that has created in the match is an own goal, but it is the result of pressure
exerted by the army of the Red Devils. An additional three points from this
victory certainly will add to the confidence Wayne Rooney et al before
challenging host Aston Villa next week.
