MANCHESTER UNITED BOSS Louis Van Gaal revealed that he kissed Ander Herrera at half-time during his side’s 3-1 victory over Aston Villa on Saturday.
The Spaniard scored a goal either side of the interval, as the 13-time Premier League champions won their fifth league game in a row.
And the 63-year-old claimed that he kissed the Spaniard at half-time, after suggesting in training that he should control the ball before pulling the trigger.
Van Gaal told MUTV: “He has a very good kicking technique and he should be more composed.
“I said to him ‘you have to control the ball before you shoot’.
“I said that to him again in yesterday’s training session, and then I kissed him at half-time because he had controlled the ball for the first time in his life and then he shot!
“But then I came to him after the second-half and he said ‘without control I can do it also!’”
United leapfrogged rivals Manchester City, who they play Crystal Palace on Monday, into third and put eight points between them and fifth-place.
