Ten Hag, managing one of the Utrecht teams for Utrecht defender Mark van der Maarel’s testimonial, saw his team lose 2-1.

Post-game, he said: "It is obvious that I come here from Manchester for Mark. 

“He has been very important for me, but of course also for FC Utrecht. 

“What he has achieved and accomplished in fifteen years at a club like Utrecht is not easy. I want to give him that recognition."
