Lammens wants rid of 'sour taste' of Spurs draw on Atletico trip

Dominic Solanke scores Tottenham's stoppage-time equaliser at Manchester United [Getty Images] Manchester United goalkeeper Senne Lammens cannot wait to face Atletico Madrid in the Champions League to get rid of the "sour taste" of another Premier League disappointment. United failed to hold on to their advantage after Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off for Tottenham at Old Trafford and in the end had to settle for a 1-1 draw, which on the balance of play was the least the visitors deserved. It was not the way to move into a daunting run of three successive away games, which starts in the Metropolitano on Tuesday night. But Lammens welcomes the meeting with Diego Simeone's side. "After a disappointment, you can take that with you, or you can get it changed real quick," said the Belgium international. "For me personally, if I don't have the best game, I'm looking forward to the next game to get that sour feeling out of my mouth. That's what the feeling we have to get." For the second time this season, United threw away a victory by conceding in stoppage time. While Lisandro Martinez was partly to blame for getting outmuscled by Tottenham skipper Dominic Solanke, who scored the equaliser, it was noticeable that neither Bryan Mbeumo nor Kobbie Mainoo got close enough to Sandro Tonali to stop the cross that led to the goal. "The cross needs to be stopped," said Lammens. "We need to put more pressure on the guy with the ball, because his cross is too easy. "Maybe comes down to a mistake from someone, but it doesn't really start with that. "It's a team thing. The manager has been hammering a lot about defending as a team, being able to put pressure on the opposition, especially on the crosses. "It was better, but then you see, one good cross, one good header, and the win can go away."
