Christian Eriksen believes FC Twente were hungrier than Manchester United in their Europa League clash, despite the Red Devils taking an early lead. The Danish midfielder scored a brilliant goal but was later involved in the play that led to Twente's equalizer.
Erik ten Hag named a strong team to face Twente in the Europa League and only three changes were made from the line-up that started against Crystal Palace last weekend.
Eriksen was starting his fourth successive game and his goal was unstoppable. Everything has seemed to go right for the midfielder in the last few weeks, but he went from hero to villain in the second half when losing the ball that led to Sam Lammers' equaliser for Twente.Although Ten Hag responded by making multiple changes, United couldn't find another breakthrough and Harry Maguire's header in added time was the last chance of the game.
Eriksen emerged to speak to TNT Sports and made a surprising admission when he revealed that he thought Twente's players wanted a result more than United on the pitch.
