Man Utd 5-2 Ipswich: What O'Neil said

Ipswich manager Gary O'Neil speaking to Sky Sports: "Really unlucky to be 2-1 down, really unlucky - two of the most unlucky goals you will see, but then not good enough to get back into it. We got punished by a very good side. "To beat Manchester United at Old Trafford you need the moments to go in your favour and they didn't. Rules can go against you, or a deflection, there are lots of things that can happen in a game that are beyond your control. "It is a complicated rule - handball if it's the goal scorer but not if it takes a deflection and was heading off the target. I think that is tough for a referee. "But no problem. I'm not here to moan about refs. We get no points, at Old Trafford a lot of people leave with no points but we leave with an understanding of where to get better. "We have three points from two tough games. A good start for us. It is the Premier League, the lads understand there will be highs and lows. We don't want there to be too many lows but the lads are fine in there. They understand." Did you know? Ipswich's Jacob Greaves became just the second player to score an own goal and concede a penalty against Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League after Jan Bednarek back in February 2021. There were just two minutes and 45 seconds between Greaves scoring an own goal and conceding a penalty. Ipswich Town have played more Premier League games at Old Trafford without ever winning than they have at any other ground.
