De Ligt: The mood now is mixed, both Tottenham goals had a bit of luck

Hupu News on November 9, Premier League, Tottenham 2-2 Manchester United. After the game, Manchester United defender De Ligt was interviewed by the club’s official TV station.

The team showed strong fighting spirit at the last moment. How do you feel now?

My mood is quite complicated, with a feeling of mixed joy and sorrow. I'm happy because we scored two goals in the last minute to tie the game, but I'm also a little disappointed because I think we could have won this game. And their two goals were, to put it bluntly, quite lucky - both were refracted into the net.

This situation is indeed a pity, but in the final analysis, a 2-2 draw is better than losing, so I am still satisfied with it.

We all know that it has been difficult for Manchester United when visiting London and against Tottenham in the past, but today all of you showed a fighting spirit and are indeed eager to get the ideal results here.

Yes, we did it. Especially in the first half, the team's defense was compact and aggressive, making it difficult for the opponent. But in the second half I felt the team lacked energy, and this is where we need to improve - in the Premier League, any slack will be punished.

However, we kept a clean sheet until the last 15 minutes or so, when the team was obviously exhausted and the opponent continued to put pressure on us. You could feel there was danger whenever they passed the ball into the box, and that was exactly what happened - they scored two goals in a matter of minutes. But we must praise the team. We fought back tenaciously and finally drew 2-2 with our opponent.

In the end, you scored a wonderful goal and saved the situation for the team. Did you hear the fans cheering when the goal was scored?

To be honest, I didn’t hear much because it was quite far away, but I’m very happy to be able to contribute to the team, and I’m also very happy that we at least got a draw.
