Sevilla 3-0 Manchester United: Erik ten Hag’s side crash out of Europa League after defensive nightmare

Sevilla beat Manchester United 3-0 on the night to win 5-2 on aggregate and reach the Europa League semi-finals, heavily aided by a dreadful defensive display from the visitors. A Harry Maguire clanger gifted Sevilla their opening goal inside 10 minutes. Maguire called for the ball from goalkeeper David de Gea, received it with three Sevilla forwards around him and promptly lost possession — giving Youssef En-Nesyri a straightforward opportunity he did not waste.

Ad United would have been 2-0 down at the break were it not for a VAR review ruling out a Lucas Ocampos goal because of an offside in a move started by Casemiro losing possession meekly.

United had no response as Sevilla managed the game well and conceded few chances of note, something Erik ten Hag's team had failed to do when 2-0 up in the first leg.

The misery was completed in the 81st minute when a De Gea howler presented En-Nesyri with the ball and he scored into an empty net.
