Manchester United conceded 2 late goals to give Sevilla a hand back into their Europa League quarter-final tie. The Mancunians started the game well with blistering pace and incisive passing from the likes of Antony Martial and Fernandes, opening up Sevilla twice for Marcel Sabitzer to capitalize with two great finishes. The Austrian could have had another from close range but missed the chance.
That became the theme for Manchester United for the remainder of the night. However, Sevilla kept pushing till they got their goal, thanks to two heavy deflection. Harry Maguire was the unfortunate villain again when En-Nesyri’s header headed straight into the English defender to confuse David De Gea for the equalizer, and steal a result from Old Trafford.
Manchester United could have easily won yesterday’s game by a healthy margin, but lack of cutting edge cost the Red Devils, who looked like they were missing the efficiency of Marcus Rashford in attack. The English forward could be back next week for the tie in Spain, but United boss Erik ten Hag understands the danger of going away to Sevilla in a Europa League tie. “We can line up a very good team in the away game. It is 2-2, so everything is open, and we have to play our best. We know that and if we bring our performance then we are confident that we can go to the next round.”
Manchester United are not a serious club
