Bayer's head coach Erik ten Hag did not start well in managing the team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The team lost 1:5 in a friendly match against Brazil's Flamengo, which consists of youth players. The result looks very bad, but I do not pay attention to the results of pre-season games, said ten Hag to The Touchline publication.
We should not have lost, especially by such a score, but the most important thing is not to lose players. The Dutch specialist was appointed head coach of Bayer before the season started, taking over from Xabi Alonso, who moved to Real Madrid.
Ten Hag previously worked at Manchester United but was dismissed from his position last October. He is expected to work hard to rebuild the team and achieve good results.
