TNT SPORTS EXPERTS REACT TO MAN UTD'S STRUGGLES
OWEN HARGREAVES: "(FC Twente deserved it) especially in the second half. I thought they were really positive, trying to play.... United just didn't have that killer instinct in the second half.
Their (Twente) fans have been brilliant at OT. That's a brilliant point for Twente, but I just think for United, that's a bit of a missed opportunity. They should have won that game. If they had kept pushing like in the first half, they would have."
KAREN CARNEY: "I remember ending the HT chat saying they (United) were in control. It was steady and they had a threat from Marcus Rashford, so I was surprised when they took him."
She added: "It's a great start for them (Twente) in this competition."
FC TWENTE SILENCE OLD TRAFFORD TO EARN DRAW WITH MAN UTD
Christian Eriksen was the hero turned villain as Manchester United kicked off their UEFA Europa League campaign with a frustrating 1-1 draw at home to FC Twente.
The Danish midfielder sizzled in a scorching first-time effort on 35 minutes to give Erik ten Hag’s men an interval lead.
However, the Dutch side were well-organised and carried a threat on the counter attack that bore fruit when Sam Lammers dispossessed Eriksen and beat Andre Onana at his near post 22 minutes from time.
Bruno Fernandes and Harry Maguire both went close to a winner for The Red Devils, but the Eredivisie side held firm to secure a famous point.
Manchester United will now switch focus to a Premier League clash with Tottenham on Sunday.
