United first leg collapse "unacceptable" says Ten Hag

Manchester United were knocked out of the Europa League by a rampant Sevilla who showed once again why they have won this tournament a record six times.

United were nervous all night and an early mistake from David De Gea and Harry Maguire gave the hosts the lead after just eight minutes. Youssef En-Nesyri pressing high to win the ball and tap it past the goalkeeper.

Lucas Ocampos believed he had added a second just before the break but a close VAR call ruled his strike out for offside. Sevilla didn’t need long after the restart tp score though. A corner ball came to Loic Bade who shouldered an effort over the head of De Gea to give the hosts a firm grip on the match.

Things got worse for United’s goalkeeper when, late in the game, he stormed out of his box, miscontrolled the ball and gave En-Nesyri an open goal to secure the win and a spot in the semi-finals.

Relive the action as Sevilla host Manchester United in the Europa League quarter-finals:

87 mins: Anthony Elanga comes on to replace Christan Eriksen for the final few minutes. The Sevilla fans are having a whale of a time now.

They’re bouncing up and down in the stands. This is a win to remember and they’ll be confident of going on to win the whole thing.

84 mins: Man Utd need this game to end. It’s been a terrible performance from them and they need to shake it off quickly. An FA Cup semi-final is still to come on Sunday and this performance needs forgetting.

Sevilla are just a class above in the Europa League. They’ve never lost the competition when they’ve reached the quarter-final stage.

GOAL! Sevilla 3-0 Man Utd (5-2 agg) - En-Nesyri, 81’⚽️

81 mins: Game over! Manchester United are out of Europe.

A long ball comes up the pitch and drops over the heads of everyone. David De Gea comes out to clear the danger but miscues his clearance and gives the ball to Youssef En-Nesyri.

He’s got an open goal ahead of him and slots it home with ease.

What is De Gea doing?

80 mins: Erik Lamela came out of the Shaw challenge with a limp and is replaced with Bryan Gil for the final 10 minutes or so.

Sevilla are marching towards victory, they’ve been too good for Man Utd tonight and the visitors are at the needing a miracle stage of proceedings.

75 mins: 15 minutes to play and Man Utd are still yet to challenge Bono in between Sevilla’s sticks. The hosts are totally in control of the game and don’t even look troubled.

They win a corner that Rakitic whips in. It drops to En-Nesyri who lays the ball off to Fernando. He shoots from range and the ball deflects behind for another corner.

72 mins: Fred is fortunate to win a free kick about 30-yards out from goal after slipping and losing the ball. There’s a long converstion about what to do with this set piece.

Harry Maguire is in the box as four players stand over the ball. It’s left to Marcus Rashford and Christian Eriksen.

Eriksen strikes it but curls his effort wide of the far post! Close but not close enough.

69 mins: A shapr counter-attack from Sevilla sees Suso drive the ball down the pitch before slipping it out wide to Ocampos. He nudges the ball into the box then lifts a cross over to the far side but there’s no-one there to get on the end of the pass.

66 mins: Man Utd’s players look a little despondent. They’ll all know that they’ve been poor tonight but the game isn’t over yet.

Erik ten Hag calls on reinforcements and brings Fred on to replace Marcel Sabitzer.

63 mins: What can Man Utd muster up in the final stages of this quarter-final? If they can score one, they’ll push to get a second. The more pressure Sevilla are put under the more likely they are to buckle.

It’s all a bit toothless from Erik ten Hag’s side at present.
