Breaking News:Sam Lammers said on Manchester United goal as ex Rangers man stuns Old Trafford
Sam Lammers’ spell at Rangers was frustrating for all involved. Especially after he returned to the Netherlands and started banging in goals.
Well, as if that wasn’t bad enough the 27-year-old heaped the irony on for Gers fans as he showed the killer instincts he was missing at Ibrox by burying an equaliser against Manchester United to gain a precious Europa League point for his new side FC Twente.
Erik ten Hag’s team took a first-half lead and continued to dominate but couldn’t increase the deficit. Goal hero Christian Eriksen then turned to villain by gifting possession to Lammers who showed all the composure in the world to finish past Andre Onana.
Lammers insists his side could have even WON the game but admitted it was still a special moment for him and the team.
“We could have won. Last 10 minutes, it was a little bit tricky, we had to stay back and defend the goal. There were definitely chances to take the three points, but we are very pleased with one point.
“We want to play with confidence but we know they’re a strong team. So sometimes we have to drop back and wait for the counter-attack. That’s how we scored, waiting for the mistake. We had two or three other moments where we could have scored. But very pleased.
“There’s not very many places better to score away from home than Old Trafford. We’re going to celebrate now in the dressing room. It’s amazing. We’re going to enjoy this moment, it’s a special night for us.”
