Louis van Gaal said Guillermo Varela and David de Gea were not to blame for Philippe Coutinho's goal in Liverpool's Europa League triumph.
Louis van Gaal accepted it was "very disappointing" for Manchester United to exit the Europa League to rival Liverpool, but said his side had enough chances to progress to the quarterfinals.
Liverpool went through 3-1 on aggregate despite falling behind on the night to Anthony Martial's penalty.
David de Gea made a series of stunning saves to keep United in the match, but he was left helpless when Philippe Coutinho beat Guillermo Varela before lifting home a sumptuous finish as the match ended 1-1 at Old Trafford on Thursday.
