Although it was a disaster in Manchester United this season, first under Eric ten Hague and last time under Rubun Amorim, 2024/25 could continue to end at a positive note for the club.

For reasons that actually can only explain the players, the Red Devils In Europe “appeared” Ia 3-0 semifinal victory of the first leg for athletic club In the Europa League, it brings them to the top of the final, accidentally play on the athletic stunning stadium San Mames.

Unless they are incredibly complacent in the old trade in return, their path to the final should be relatively simple one, and history is in United.

My Ruben Amor delighted with the results of the first leg in Bilba

133 teams won the first leg UEFA Cup / UEFA Europa League knockout scene for three or more goals away from the house, and all 133 progressed from / won the tie.

Thursday evening, he also saw the largest victory of United in the semifinals of the great European competition, and the way the show who left Amorim impressed.

“I think this is the best result because no one expected that,” The pendant told reporters at his press conference after the match. “We created a chance, but the most important thing is that the opponent did not receive shots in our goal.”

From the point of view of the manager, the joy of European success must be mitigated by a pathetic representation that shows in the country.

In order to put the United Diametral opposing form in the context, they now won several games in Europe league (seven wins in nine matches) than in the Premier League (six in 23). The red devils also reached only three goals less under Portuguese manager at the European competition (24) than in league (27).

His claim that the United Aest Atletic Club is true in terms of shots. They still had nine shots in the game in relation to visitors 14, but only three of the hosts were targeted (seven for united).

Athletic is the hardest home defeat in all competitions seven years

Put three naked pillows in half of the time in further context, the last last year achieved three half goals in the speed of knockout in large European competition in 1965/66.

In contrast, the athletic club suffered their most difficult defeat of domestic 3-0 laligation for Villareal in September 2018. years. Thursday evening, Los Leones is in their six goals in combination in combination.

The three goals took the red devils at 31, most of any teams this season this season, and they have achieved two or more goals in 10 different games – their common in the campaign of great European football with Champions League 2002/03.

Bruno Fernandes MAN United’s most important player remains

Fernandes in Bilbau inserted a bracelet to help to united advantage in a tie, and only Liverpool Mohamed is wrong (56) It is directly involved in several goals for the Premier League in all competitions this season from Portuguese (35 – 19 goals, 16 assists).

Captain United (with 27 goals) is also just behind Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (34) and Radamel Falcao (30) As for the goals scored in Europe League, and he is leading assists in the competition (18 – level with Sushi Mertens), which indicates its huge significance for this emerging phenomenon.

The night, however, was one of the many away players who can hold their heads high.

For the beginning, not many teams went to sleep mammova and leaving that he dominated the ball with 62.6%.

The red card that eventually led to the seat, almost certainly played a part of visitors who are able to knock the ball to lie down for anyone and that Amorim may not be delighted in which his team did not let his team release Men Ernesto Valverde.

Basque giants were disappointing in many areas against red devils

Although the Athletic was like their premier opponents, winning 11 of his 18 pain compared to 12 12 years, and their 10 interceptions were to the United seven years, when they were important in Basque.

228 passes the red devils 631, and only 63.4% of completion in the opposition half, compared to 83.7%, tells his story.

Unusually for the Basque side, player accuracy as Versa williams (41.7%), Nico Williams (53.3%) and Oscar de Marcos (62.5%) was excluded and up against the team where Harry Maguire (97.1%), Victor Lindelof (97%) and Leny Yoro (92.5%) He led the way, there will always be a struggle uphill.

Valverde is also obliged to not be satisfied that his side could not take advantage of the unified loss of possession of an amazing 117 times in the game and that visitors only allowed them in a total of 14 touches.

Fourth in Laliga currently and plays well, it was a real night for Basques. The result of the first leg, however, forces Valverde to run their usual careful approach in Old Trafford, and is likely to play right in the United States.
