BRUNO’S THOUGHTS
United striker deflated after the game, Fernandes said: “We made a wonderful game and created many occasions, but in football it’s not enough. When you create occasions, you have to finish and mark, but today we lost a lot.” in front of the goal.
“We are not satisfied with this result because we have to move on to the final. Now it’s time to rest and refresh your legs before next season.
Speaking of the dispute with Lindelof, after Sevilla went ahead, he added: “It’s general when you concede a goal ten minutes from the end, all crazy.
“It’s not about Victor and me, it’s about the whole team. What happened between Victor and me is nothing, it’s normal.
“But what’s vital now is that we have to see the mistakes everyone has made and us for the next game.”
MAGUIRE SPEAKS
Speaking after the match, Manchester United captain Harry Maguire said: “The boys are devastated. We create a lot of opportunities, but we have to win the game. The most productive team lost and we were punished for lack of opportunities, we were ruthless at times this year, but we were not.
“We fit into two centres and it’s not smart enough. We worked our socks and deserved to win the game and move on. But, in the end, we failed in the semi-finals for the third time this year, so it’s disappointing.
“Losing is not acceptable, reaching the semi-finals is not acceptable. We want to go further and take a new step.”
“Losing is not appropriate for this club. We finish 3rd in the Premier League and even though others say it’s a smart season, we don’t need to finish 3rd next year.
POGBACK AT BEST
Despite the result, Pogba had a game. It had a pass accuracy of 89%, 12 ball recoveries, 4 created opportunities and 3 tackles won, among other things!

Lindel-OFF
This is what happened after Seville received its second. Fernandes was not inspired by Lindelof’s efforts, nor by his absence From Array..

DANGEROUS AREA
Wan-Bissaka gave a loose kick on the edge of the area may have been avoided.
As Rio Ferdinand says, the defenders will have to stand up.
They’re @ManUtd

93. Pogba takes the ball from Sevilla in the most sensitive area, playing Ighalo who dances for the defense. Three Sevilla defenders force him to leave the ball. Is United over?

Ighalo’s going for Greenwood.

84. Rashford goes crazy to Navas and passes the ball to Fernandes, who appears to be returned by Fernando to the area.

81. Ole made no adjustments tonight, however, its appearance is now affected. This is a smart time to make a change.
SEVILLA 2-1 MANCHESTER UNITED
80. Well, that’s a result for the books. United had 20 shots framed tonight and saw much more menacing. But Seville was right to take credit for a careless defense.
78. Navas receives some time to the right and whips it in the middle of the area.
Lindelof doesn’t turn around because De Jong scores in front of the goal, attacks him because De Gea is powerless.
In the heat of the moment, Fernandes and Lindelof yell at each other after the goal is conceded. The position of Lindelof’s frame is absolutely false.

GOOOOOOAL

77. Greenwood has fired: this is United’s 20th attempt. But Bono is coming down and collecting the little effort.

76. Wan Bissaka retreats and stops Seville on his way. United uses interception to create its own counter. These are end-to-end things.
