England Premiere League giants, Manchester United were dumped out of the Europa Champions League last night following a dreadful performance against Sevilla.
The accurate Spanish side led after eight minutes when Youssef En-Nesyri finished following an error from Harry Maguire.
Sevilla doubled their advantage with a looping header from defender Loic Bade, before En-Nesyri again capitalised on a mistake from goalkeeper David de Gea to secure a place for the semi final.
United were well below their best as they exited Europe with a whimper.
However, Manchester United Coach, Erik Ten Hag furiously responded to the loss. He said, ““We lost the battles, they had more passion, more desire, more willingness, that’s difficult to win games.
“We have to blame ourselves. It’s gone, we can’t change it. We have to look forward to Sunday, that’s the next opportunity.”
This is the first of a series of potentially season-defining games for United as they take on Brighton at Wembley in the FA Cup semi-finals on Sunday and face a key Premier League match at Tottenham on 27 April.
If Manchester United continue to perform dismally, Erik Ten Hag’s would completely fail this season’s test.
Meanwhile, Sevilla will play Juventus in a two-legged semi-final on 11 and 18 May.
