Manchester United suffered a humiliating defeat to Sevilla in the Europa League quarter-finals, crashing out of the competition in a shambolic fashion.
The Spanish side beat United 3-0, securing their spot in the semi-finals with a 5-2 aggregate score. Sevilla outplayed United, who had scored two own goals in the first leg of the match. Youssef En-Nesyri opened the scoring early on, capitalizing on Harry Maguire’s mistake as he gave the ball away on the edge of his own area. Loic Bade headed home the second goal from a corner in the first minute of the second half, and En-Nesyri scored his second goal into an empty net after United goalkeeper David de Gea mishit a clearance while outside his area.
United struggled to create chances without sus-pended playmaker Bruno Fernandes and with Mar-cus Rashford and Luke Shaw on the bench due to injury. Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s tame shot was easily collected by Sevilla’s Yassine Bounou, and United’s biggest first-half concern was an injury to defender Marcao, who had to be replaced.—AFP
