Reaction by Manchester United head coach Erik Ten Hag after his side cruised into the quarterfinals of the Europa League on Thursday after a 1-0 victory at Real Betis in the second leg of their round-of-16 encounter.
Marcus Rashford produced a clinical finish in the 56th minute, finding the bottom corner of the net with a low drive from outside the area to help United advance on a 5-1 aggregate score in the second-tier European competition.
United won 4-1 in the first leg at Old Trafford last week.
Erik ten Hag On Bruno Fernandes, "He can play in so many roles, for tactics, for the team it is brilliant that he can play roles, that he can play where we can benefit from him, where we can overload areas, where he can outplay opponents. So we get a good situation and we create chances. And then where he is always also very important is in the counterpress and in the pressing, so that transition is really a fantastic skill from him. He's an example for the team, his performance already is big, the reason it is big is that he is in a brilliant form, and it looks like he is getting better and better from game to game."
