Thoughts from Martin Blackburn of SunSport at Old Trafford
Fans at Old Trafford have faced a challenging season – but tonight felt like a glimpse back at the club’s glory days.
Right from the start, United played as though their entire season depended on this match – and truthfully, it did.
Manuel Ugarte finished off a fantastic team move to give the Red Devils an early lead, followed shortly by Diogo Dalot scoring just before the halftime whistle.
Even Andre Onana showcased his skills with a couple of remarkable saves. United appears ready to seize a spot in the semifinals.
