Real Sociedad 1-1 Man UTD: Bruno Fernandes costs its side while Mikel Oyarzabal Criminal Levels Vee | Football news
Manchester United had to settle for Remi 1-1 in Real Sociedad in their Europa League circle of 16th first leg after Bruno Fernandes gave a handball penalty.
Mikel Oyarzabal, a goal scorer who broke England’s hearts in the end of the euro against Spain, turned from a place from the remaining 20 minutes as she turned her head after the game after Joshua Zirkzee United earned a well -deserved lead in the second half.
It is a Europa League or Bust for United this season, and they responded well to pressure, reaching one of their better appearances under Ruban Amorim, and will feel disappointed that they did not take the lead to Manchester after missing the key chances.
United could run with two in the first half, because Fernandes saw that a shot was erased from the line, and Diogo Dalot failed to install the Ball of Rasmus Hojlund in a six -yard box. The striker, now without a goal in 19 games, was rightly furious about his wing.
Zirkzee helped the hopelessly goalkeeper Alex Remir for the opener. His tamed strike from the edge of the box was almost straight down the middle, but Sociedad was without position and was unable to make up for lost ground.
Fernandes felt outraged that Sociedad gave his way back to play with 20 minutes, but his hand made contact with the ball while competing for the head in the frame and a real decision was made.
Oyarzabal’s penalty was the first shot of Sociedada on the target of the game, drawing the dominance that United had at that stage. But they could have lost him late because Andre Onana was forced into a smart rescue and Orri Oskarsson missed a great chance from the bench.
Amorim’s perfect record in this competition is closer to the end, but it can take a little confidence in the second part of Thursday after its side produced an improved effect and caused the Sociedad problems.
AMORIM: The punishment has changed the momentum
Man utd boss Ruben amorim:
“Until the punishment, we had control of the game and then the punishment changed the momentum.
“In the last 30 minutes we were really, really tired and you could feel it in the game.
“So we pass it on to Old Trafford and it will be a different game. The pressure will be on us in that stadium and we must be ready.
“The key will be physically survived for Sunday (against Arsenal) and be ready and fresh for Thursday.”
