Manchester United boss, Erik ten Hag has praised his centre-half partnership of Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans following the Red Devils’ Premier League 0-0 draw with Liverpool on Sunday.

Ten Hag said Varane and Evans played very well against Liverpool, adding that the duo are very experienced.

Recall that both teams failed to score at Anfield as the match ended in a goalless draw.

Speaking after the game, Ten Hag told Sky Sports: “They played very well.

“Raphael Varane and Evans, they played a brilliant game.

“I don’t think they ever played together apart from in training but you see they are very experienced.”

Varane was recalled to the starting XI against Bayern Munich midweek having started just one of United’s previous 13 games.

Ten Hag added in his press conference: ‘We know what he is capable of, he has many such performances and I think he did very well as the whole team in the partnership with Jonny Evans.

‘Both led the team from the back, also Andre Onana played a big part in it but I can mention all the players because it was a really good team, very disciplined.
