Manchester United has been struggling against the Spanish La Liga team lately.

Manchester United lost 0-3 to Sevilla 메이저놀이터 in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the 2022-23 season European Football Association (UEFA) Europa League (UEL) held at Ramon Sanchez Pisjuan in Seville, Spain at 4:00 am (Korean time) on the 21st. Manchester United, who drew 2-2 in the first leg, failed to advance to the semifinals after being pushed by Sevilla with an aggregate score of 2-5.

On this day, Manchester United operated a 4-2-3-1 formation. Martial was in the forefront, with Sancho, Sabitzer, and Anthony at the back. Eriksen and Casemiro made up the midfield, and the back four was paired with Dalot, Lindelof, Maguire and Wan-Bissaka. De Gea in goal. 

Some key players were absent. On the offensive side, Bruno was sidelined due to a cumulative yellow card and Rashford, who had just returned from injury, sat on the bench. Instead of them, Sabitzer and Sancho started. Also, Lisandro and Baran, who were the main center back combination this season, are also injured. As a result, their backups, Maguire and Lindelof, stepped in.

The result was a crushing defeat. Early in the first half, an error by the defensive team allowed an early goal. In the 8th minute of the first half, while trying to build up from the back, Maguire, who received a pass from De Gea, lost the ball to Lamela. En-Nesiri, who tried to press together, drove the ball and finished it calmly. 

There was no turnaround in the second half. They scored an extra goal in the 2nd minute of the second half. Rakitic’s corner kick was scored by Baade with a header. The 0-2 score remained intact. Then, in the 36th minute of the second half, De Gea made the worst mistake. He cleared the net and tried to handle the ball, but he couldn’t kick it properly, which led to En-Nesiri’s wedge goal.

In the end, Man United lost 0-3 to Sevilla, and advance to the UEL semi-finals was frustrated. Man Utd have been underpowered when facing La Liga teams in the tournament since taking charge of the competition in the 2016-17 season. In the 2017-18 season, he participated in the UEFA Champions League (UCL), but was eliminated in the round of 16 by Sevilla.
