      Sevilla 3 Man Utd 0 (5-2): Woeful Red Devils crash OUT of Europa League after De Gea and Maguire disasterclass

      by

      THIS WAS A CALAMITY completely of Manchester United’s own making.It is one captain Harry Maguire will want to forget in a hurry too.

      His improvised finish looped over De GeaCredit: Reuters
      Unfortunately his contribution to the tie is more likely to result in a permanent reminder with a statue of him outside the Estadio Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.
      An own goal in the first leg and a blunder in the second from the England international has handed Sevilla a place in the semi-finals of the Europa League and ended the Red Devils’ cup treble dreams.
      After lifting the Carabao Cup with Bruno Fernandes at Wembley Maguire wanted his hands on more silverware.
      It can only be the FA Cup as well now and United need to pick themselves up very quickly for Sunday’s semi-final against Brighton which is far from a certainty if this is anything to go by.
      Maguire was not the only one at fault. David de Gea had a nightmare too. In fact nobody who boards the plane straight to London tonight in preparation for Sunday can do so with their heads held high.
      They had this tie in the palm of their hands when Marcel Sabitzer scored twice inside the first 21 minutes at Old Trafford last week and blew it.
      Manager Erik ten Hag was culpable of believing the job was done when he made too many substitutions in the second period of that first tie and his team lost their discipline and shape.
      Own goals from Tyrell Malacia and Maguire late on left the tie level going into this return and a rejuvenated Sevilla looked well up to finish the job.
      Most read in Football
      The atmosphere inside the stadium was fantastic and the Sevilla players responded while United just wilted.
      They were behind after just seven minutes.
      Why on earth do United persist with trying to play the ball out from the back?
      Their neighbours in the blue half of Manchester can do it with ease.
      In the red half the ball is like a grenade with the pin out the way they nervously try to pass it about before someone gives up on the plan and launches it anyway.
      Sevilla know it is an Achilles heel of their’s, every side does.
      So when David De Gea passed to Harry Maguire three Sevilla players were on him and control was wrestled away by Erik Lamela.
      The ball ran loose to Youssef En-Nesyri who fired home.
      The place was jumping and the noise was deafening when it looked like Sevilla had second on 39 minutes before VAR riled out Lucas Ocampos goal for an offside in the build up.
      United off the hook, but only temporarily.
      The problem was they simply did not look like scoring themselves.
      Not surprisingly Ten Hag made changes at the break with the fit again Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw brought on in place of Jadon Sancho and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
      But things quickly got worse just two minutes into the second-half.
      From Ivan Rakitic’s corner Loic Bade’s attempted header looped up off his shoulder over De Gea and in off the underside of the bar.
      Sevilla were dominant, United all over the place.
      Rakitic had a shot which De Gea palmed away unconvincingly and from the resulting corner a scramble in the six yard box almost saw the ball forced past the United goalkeeper again.
      You knew things were getting desperate when Ten Hag then had to turn to on loan Wout Weghorst for a route back into the game.
      Martial limped off injured, again.
      The manager didn’t even bother with a handshake as the completely ineffectual Frenchman took his place on the bench.
      Ten Hag says United are better when Martial plays, they aren’t.
      He offered absolutely nothing here.
      No doubt he’ll be out for a few more weeks with whatever it is this time. It doesn’t really matter.
      Sevilla had him here on loan last season and witnessed his lack of threat at first hand as he returned one goal in 12 appearances.
      Not surprisingly they didn’t want to make the move permanent.
      If United want to go places next season they need a striker at the top of his game to help Rashford out with the goalscoring duties.
      This was a performance that reminded us of the bad old days from last season and the opening two games of this.
      Listless and lacking ideas with their finger’s constantly hovering above the self destruct button.
      It was pressed again to complete an awful night in the 81st minute.
      De Gea came out of his area to meet a hopeful punt upfield but completely miscontrolled the ball allowing En-Nesyri to fire past him into an unguarded goal.
      ACDC’s Highway to Hell was the song that revved the crowd up before kick off.
      Having seemingly turned the corner under Ten Hag this tie had United back on it.
      It was a humiliation.

      A journey to Wembley on Sunday offers some salvation.
      Brighton, fresh from victory away to Chelsea last weekend, will not be quaking in their boots. More

      Fuming Man Utd fans want to ‘leave De Gea in Spain’ after another shocking error gifts Sevilla goal

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED fans are fuming with David De Gea’s performance in the Europa League quarter-final.The Red Devils were outclassed by their Spanish opponents, but De Gea has been at fault for three goals.

      David De Gea was at fault for Sevilla’s goal
      His error gifted Youssef En-Nesyri an open goal
      A chance that he did not pass up
      For the first goal, he and Harry Maguire got into a mix-up which allowed Youssef En-Nesyri to open the scoring in the 8th minute.
      De Gea was then beaten by a looping header from Loic Bade just after the second half started, in which Robbie Savage claimed he could have done better.
      He then followed this up with some bad control allowing the Moroccan striker to net his second of the game in the 92nd minute.
      And supporters were left fuming with the goalkeeper, with some demanding he be left in Spain and not allowed to fly back with the team.

      One fan tweeted: “Leave Sancho, De Gea & Maguire in Seville.”
      A second said: “Is De Gea playing in flippers?”
      A third commented: “You cannot, you just CANNOT defend De Gea and Maguire anymore! This is unacceptable! De Gea “has” been a legend for this club, but in no way he should be given a new contract.
      “And Harry Maguire needs to be thrown out of the club! The season is crumbling down!!”

      While a fourth said: “De Gea with a huge mistake before Sevilla goal.”
      A fifth added: “Maguire and De Gea fighting for the biggest clown title.”
      A sixth supporter declared: “If Ten Hag approves of De Gea signing a new contract after tonight, I will slap his bald head if I ever get the chance.”
      The errors led to Man United exiting from the competition 5-2 on aggregate.
      The disaster class by De Gea will lessen his bargaining position over his new contract with the club, with fans saying to take the offer of the table.
      The Spaniard’s deal at Old Trafford runs out in June, and he would be free to leave the club for nothing if not agreement is signed. More

      I’ve knocked Man Utd out of Europe twice, ended up on the front pages over a sex act and was ran over by my own car

      EVER BANEGA is one of the most successful players in the Europa League having won the competition three times.During his career has been able to knock out Manchester United of European football on two different occasions.

      The Argentine midfielder haunted the Red Devils in the Champions League quarter-finals in 2018 and in the Europa League semi-finals in 2020.
      Banega, 34, will be hoping to make it a hat-trick as Sevilla take on Man United in the Europa League quarter-finals second leg tonight at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium.
      The first leg ended 2-2 at Old Trafford as United threw away a two-goal lead in the last ten minutes of the game.
      However, Banega’s life has not just been full of football highs as he has hit headlines for antics off the pitch.
      READ MORE ON MAN UTD
      In 2008 after moving to Valencia from Boca Juniors he was caught on webcam performing a sexual act on himself, which led to him hitting the Spanish newspapers.
      He was able to move on from the incident with his form on the pitch despite the side struggling under manager Ronald Koeman.
      However, it did not take long for him to hit the headlines for the wrong reasons again after he was pulled over by police in March that year.
      The club statement at the time did not hold back on blame for the midfielder.
      Most read in Football
      BETTING SPECIAL – BEST SPORTS BETTING APPS IN THE UK
      It read: “Banega committed a traffic offence last night and as a result was given an alcohol test where he gave a positive [test].
      “Until the details of the incident become clear, Valencia will not make any comment.”
      The player was then allegedly involved training ground incidents with alcohol issues which lead to him being loaned to Atletico Madrid.
      After this spell away from the club, Banega came back to a very different Valencia team that boasted the likes of Juan Mata, David Villa and David Silva.
      This allowed Banega to benefit and show his true abilities with the ball.

      However, problems arose again as in 2012 he was run over by his own car.
      The incident happened at a petrol station as his car reportedly rolled back after a handbrake failure and crushed his leg leaving him needing ankle surgery and a long stint on the sidelines.
      Things never picked back up for Banega at Valencia and in 2014 he moved Sevilla and quickly found his best form.
      He won the Europa League back to back in his first two seasons, including beating Liverpool in the final in 2016.

      After a year at Inter Milan, Banega returned to the LaLiga club and won the competition again in 2020, beating the Italian side in the final.
      It was during this run that they knocked out the Red Devils in the semis 2-1 on aggregate.

      His current contract runs out this summer and United want to reduce his wages from £375,000 a week to £200,000 but the player is refusing to sign.
      Ahead of United’s Europa League quarter-final second leg against Sevilla on Thursday night, Ten Hag said: “David is a really multi-functional and complete goalkeeper. We are very happy with him.’’
      The Dutchman also highlighted how important De Gea is amid the keeper’s uncertain future and question marks over his distribution.

      He said: “Everyone has their own particular style and nowadays in possession, it becomes more important, especially at the top level.
      “There you take control and it is more difficult for the opponent to gain pressure, you also concede less chances.
      “But it’s about stopping goals, stopping  shots,  stopping  crosses, one-on-ones,  more like the classic goalkeeper.”

      I’m a Sevilla star.. Man Utd are going to suffer in Europa League tie – they have no idea what awaits them in second leg

      Erik ten Hag’s men spurned a two-goal lead as the visitors struck in stoppage-time to capitalise on a depleted United team.
      Both Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane went off injured and are unavailable for the return clash.
      And ex-Barcelona man Rakitic, 35, who won the Europa League with Sevilla in 2014, has sent a stern warning to the Premier League outfit as they travel to face the LaLiga side.
      Speaking to AS, he said: “These people don’t know what awaits them on Thursday.

      “It is a team with a lot of experience and many millions, but United does not know what Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan [Sevilla’s ground] is like packed. 
      “I know from when I was at Barcelona that players from other teams sing the Sevilla anthem on the pitch.
      “It’s unique. What our fans have created is very impressive.”
      Rakitic then predicted that David de Gea and Casemiro – who have experienced facing Sevilla during their time in LaLiga – will speak to their team-mates about the intensity of the stadium.
