Ander Herrera: 'We can fix derby defeat by beating Feyenoord in Europa League'

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera says that the team can heal the wounds of their derby defeat by getting a win in their Europa League opener against Feyenoord.

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has claimed that the team can overcome their defeat to derby rivals Manchester City by winning their Europa League opener against Feyenoord this evening.

Jose Mourinho's side lost their first game of the season when they went 2-1 down to their local enemies last weekend.

The attention now turns to Europe, and Mourinho is expected to name a much-changed side to compete in the second-tier competition.

"When you lose the derby, I cannot lie, it was a tough day, a very tough weekend for us and for our fans because it is a game your life depends on for the next week," Herrera told reporters.

"I like to train but I prefer to play as many games as possible. After the defeat against Man City, we have the chance to fix it. We want to do it, we want to show the fans we are here to win every game.

"This match is a good challenge for all of us. The way we have reacted we have to show in this traditional stadium against a historic team. I like football and I like to play against the best teams and Feyenoord is one of them in Holland."

United will also play Fenerbahce and Zorya Luhansk in the Europa League group stage.
