Man Utd fans left in disbelief at Erik ten Hag's reaction to Bayern Munich defeat

Erik ten Hag's post-match interview after Manchester United's defeat to Bayern Munich has left fans in disbelief.

The Red Devils suffered a 1-0 defeat to Bayern Munich in their final group stage match, sealing their exit from European football.

After a cagey 70 minutes, Kingsley Coman broke the deadlock with a tidy finish past Andre Onana.

Ten Hag also made an unfortunate piece of history in the process, as United became the first English side in history to concede 15 goals in the Champions League group stage.

In truth, it was a night to forget for the Old Trafford side, who managed just one shot on target all evening.

However, the Dutchman came across unusually upbeat at full-time, crediting his players for the effort they put in and insisting that "the performance was very good."

Speaking to TNT Sports, Ten Hag said: "We didn't lose it [the Champions League group stage] today. We had some good performances, but we made some mistakes, individual errors from players. In the end, it's not good enough, but I think today, the performance was very good, and we didn't deserve to lose.

"That’s clear [no depth on the bench]. A big compliment to the team against this good Bayern side. We needed energy from the bench. The options on the front line were limited."

"We didn't make it... we have to accept and learn from it!" 💪

Fans were quick to respond to the 53-year-old's comments, calling him "delusional".

Taking to social media, one person tweeted: "GAVE EVERYTHING!?!?!?!?!?!? 1 SHOT ON TARGET ARE YOU HAVIN A LAUGH?!"

Another added: "Jesus what is he watching?"

While a third chimed in: "WTF am I reading. He has lost it hasn't he? If you call that performance good, then it shows his std are dropping way way wayyy lower than bare minimum."

A fourth wrote: "How can anyone back this clown absolutely delusional it was a horrific performance the fact he's still at the club shows how far we've fallen as a club."

Another tweeted: "Why does he keep calling these things good performances? For real, why?"
