Manchester United’s boss, Louis van Gaal, said the ‘law of murphy’ is to blame for Manchester United’s shocking Europa League defeat at FC Midtjylland.
United travelled to Denmark with 13 first-team players unable to feature in their round-of-32 tie with Midtjylland, including captain, Wayne Rooney, and goalkeeper, David de Gea.
United fans in the MCH Arena made it clear that they were not impressed with their side’s display.
Van Gaal accepted that the second-half performance was not good enough, but defended the attitude of his players.
