UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[Justbillywitt]

Manchester United will really play a nice performance at their home game because if we are to judge from the first leg performance, we will see that Manchester United's performance is a bit better than that of Real Sociedad, and the game will end in a draw, which is just as you mentioned that Manchester United will be pleased to have a home game in the second leg, which will be like an advantage to them to win against Real Sociedad, so I don’t think the game will be that hard for Manchester United to win, but still it is a game; anything can happen, but I also have my trust in them to win the game tomorrow.

Since it will be a home match for Man United, it is normal if we assume that the match in League 2 should be easier. And it is true that Man United is playing better than Real Sociedad now. Man United very dominated the match, they make many shot attempts. Unfortunately, they only could score 1 goal now, meanwhile Real Sociedad also scored 1 goal. If Man United keep dominating the match, I'm sure Man United will win the match. It seems another goal will be in second half of the match, the first half of the match is almost over. Well, this is a tight match, the aggregate 2-2.

From what I have seen so far in this match, Manchester United haven't really done much. The match is still very much balanced. Both teams haven't really been much of a threat against each other. They are hardly penetrating the boxes as both side have same shot on targets. United have had more Corner kicks but they have been unable to take advantage of that too. The both sides scored from the penalty kicks. Though the first half has been very entertaining and lively, but I'm expecting more actions in the second half. Shots should be fired at the goal keepers. Defensively both sides has been good. Manchester United are trying to rely on counter attacks, but so far real Sociedad has been able to lock them down. Both teams are really doing better going by the half result.

Due to the performance that I am seeing, I still have hope for Manchester United because they are still playing better even though they were not the team to score the first goal, but still we don’t know what will happen in the second half, so let’s still wait and see what will happen in the second half; if not, I don’t think Real Sociedad will be able to win against Manchester United even though they are playing a draw game now, and even if Real Sociedad maintains the game till the penalty shootout, Manchester United will still win.

Good game for Manchester United. The first half ended in favour of Manchester United, they possessed and had some dangerous attacks that almost resulted to goal. If Manchester United can play with the spirit they used at the first half the game can end in there favour. Looking at the way the game is going, Manchester United needs to step up a bit  and know how to convert chances so they can advance to the next round

[Hyphen(-)]

Fenerbahçe played very bad in the first half, they couldn't even make a proper position, Fenerbahçe scored with Szymanski in the last minute of the first half with their first accurate shot. They need to score at least two more goals in the second half, I don't think it will be easy at all, they were able to create very limited positions in the first half.

It is not always easy to defeat home teams easily despite how strong the opponents are. Rangers is a team that will not be considered as an average team nor weak team, they are in a good shape and are doing well in their league, therefore, we cannot underrate them especially after seeing how well they played in the first leg away from home and secure a 3-1 win over Fenerbahçe which is the advantage they are still standing on in this match.

Fenerbahçe Is trying to play smart, they pressured the Rangers defenders to get yellow cards so that they can easily have one man down or even have either a penalty, but from all indications, the Patterson is not working anymore because Fenerbahçe just scored one goal and they need two more goals to qualify, which looks very difficult for them at this moment.

In the Roma - Atletic Bilbao match, Roma was one man down in the very early minutes, Hummels was sent off in the 11th minute. Roma won the first match 2-1, if they hadn't been down so early in this match, they could have passed this round.

Roma didn’t make it at the end, they are defeated 3-1 today which makes the aggregate 4-3. This is the only match I doubted the home team because of the number of goals AS Roma scored in the first leg.
Congratulations to Atletic Bilbao for making it to the quarterfinals of the UEFA Europa League.

Fenerbahçe plays very smart football. Just like Mourinho's team.
The Norwegian referee shows no mercy to fouls and immediately shows yellow cards.
All three defenders in Rangers are playing with yellow cards. Talisca in Fenerbahçe got a yellow card because he tried to fool the referee, but I think the position was a foul and the referee did not evaluate it well. If he had been in the penalty area, VAR would have intervened and there would have been a penalty, but since he was outside the penalty area, VAR did not intervene.
If I were Mourinho, I would have taken En Nesyri and Talisca off the field in the second half. I would have put Dzeko and Tadic on the field. I am eagerly waiting for the second half. Fenerbahçe needs to score one more goal without conceding a goal to take the match to extra time.

Fenerbahce is leading 0-1 but its still not enough. They are putting a lot of presure on Rangers but just cannot score. So far 60th minute Fenerbahce didnt make any subs and is playing with the current team. I think they can score at least one more goal by full time for sure.

Manchester united is leading with 2:1 now, another goal by Bruno Fernandes, Manchester united best performing player for now. Manchester united is really possessing them despite the fact that they are not inform lol, one thing about football is experience once you have an experience whether you are inform or not you will definitely do better just like Real Madrid they don't have to be inform before they can play champions league because it is part of them already. If Manchester united will continue with this pressure they will definitely win and even score more goals.

Yes, I like how everything is going, I think that the fact of having shown a red card to Mikel Aramburu was a great exaggeration of the referee, I do not agree with how these referees sometimes carry a game, sometimes seeing how this game is going I would say that the referee has a slight bias on the MU, and it is not worth it, despite everything this team does not need refereeing help, the departure of Aramburu to make a last man fall knowing that it could be a yellow card, he is a defender, well he can sacrifice himself, but for a red card I see him too severe, it bores the game a bit in my opinion.

[Raflesia]

It is HT 1-1 I think there is a great chance and possiblity of Manchester United winning this game though both team had scored with a penalty Real Sociedad was leading with 1-0 before Manchester United later equalize with a penalty also which was converted by Fernandes, Manchester United performance is good they are dominating more in the game though if it ends like this after extra time they are going to play a penalty shot out where the lucky side wins but believe Manchester United will finish the game with a victory before FT at the Theatre of dream Old Trafford .

Seriously now 3 goals against each other are from penalties?
Manchester United's momentum is huge now to secure their position as well as qualify for the next phase, they are already quite superior on aggregate and now Sociedad lost 1 player due to a red card obtained making the situation certainly not too good for them in the remaining time because surely Mancehster United can have several options to secure the score at this time.

Now they just need to keep the situation the same with possession until the end because if Amorim changes to a defensive state with the advantage they have, it is tantamount to making a bigger opportunity for Sociedad so that maintaining dominance with the advantage of numbers is more likely to be done.
But what's interesting is that in this match with an aggregate of 3-2 in 2 legs now 4 of the goals are from penalties which makes me shake my head

[shinratensei_]

Roma are unfortunate to have defender Hummels sent off in the 11th minute of such an important match. Hummels should have been more careful. Hummels could have started the match without such a bad tackle.

Roma failed to control the match due to their early stumbling. We expected a well-organized performance from Roma today. But Hummels' red card changed the whole scenario. Bilbao took the lead in the 45+3 minute with Williams' goal and in the 68th minute of the second half, Bilbao is now 2-0 ahead with Berchiche's goal. If the match ends 2-0, Athletic Bilbao will qualify for the quarter-finals

Roma is end, and thanks for Hummels from become the reason why they failed to qualify for the next round. He's way too experienced to create such mistake, and red card was the reason why they lose in that game. He's should be blamed.

They will never get Mou's magic again in european competition, and always the same old result achieved by them. It's also a wake up if so many players played badly. A few mental lapses costed them a lot in this game. They deserved it, and hopefully, it can give them huge lesson to be learned.

The first half didn't end in favor of Manchester United because the score was 1:1 but the second half is almost getting to the die minutes and Manchester United is leading by 2:1, though Real Sociedad conceded a red card and the red card has spoilt their game because the pressure will be much on them now that they are only 10 men in the pitch but sincerely, Manchester United gave Sociedad a hard game tonight and i think the pressure led to the red card that Sociedad got and made things more easier for United. Bruno Fernandes is the man of the match for Manchester United because he scored the brace that is about to take United to the next stage of the Europa League games.

Edit: The score is now 3:1 and Bruno Fernandes has finally gotten the hattrick, the team spirit of Manchester United in this game is world class and it is commendable because a lot of people were basically having doubt that United can't win Real Sociedad and qualify but all who made predictions against United have failed.

The second half is back on play and the result clearly going in favour of the home side who are currently leading 2:1 ok the scoresheet and more advantageously for Manchester United is that the visiting side Real Sociedad are now one man's down as one of their players Aramburu has been red carded. The energy of Manchester United tonight is commendable and it doesn't look like what we've seen them play in the EPL and it's just surprising they have possession and control of the ball showing a  home advantage for them. All they need do now is to maintain this scoreline till the end of score more goals to deal their lead and qualify to the next stage.

Can it be considered that Manchester United will qualify with the current score even though there is still time for the match?
Despite Manchester United's two goals coming from the penalty spot 12 yards out, but this proves that Manchester United are different when they appear in the Europa League competition.
Hojlund who has not performed well in the Premier League, in this match performed well.

I am happy with Manchester United's performance and Bruno just scored a Hattrick. Valid. Manchester United are through and this is a result that really refutes all the analysis about Manchester United.

[BIT-BENDER]

Manchester United are really taking the uefa Europa League very seriously, this competition is their only opportunity at salvaging something in a very bad season. Real s'dad aren't an easy team to face and even after going down first Manchester United showed great character and I believe they deserve to go through.
In as much as I am impressed with their run so far in the Europa League I still think they aren't anywhere close to being favorite to winning the trophy.

The advantage in the number of players was really utilized well by Manchester United in this match because apart from them controlling the ball well, in this case they were quite clever in utilizing the momentum especially in the penalty box where in this case the Sociedad players also always made almost the same mistakes which made them feel 3 penalties which resulted in goals in this match.

Even though the match is still ongoing but with the advantage in the number of players and the current score that occurred, I hope we already know what the end of this match will be like where Manchester United will advance to the next phase.

But when talking about performance on the field I think Sociedad played better when they were in the 1st leg than now because seeing what they did the difference was too far apart and only made mistakes many times which made it maximized well to become Manchester United's advantage in this match.

It's full time at the Old Trafford with Manchester United winning the game with a 4:1 scoreline. To be honest, I wasn't expecting Ruben Amorim's men to come into the second half and score three more goals after the first half finished 1:1. In a season Manchester United are struggling, Bruno Fernandes have been the hero saving them when it matters most just like he did tonight by scoring a hattrick. Manchester United who are having a forgettable campaign in the English Premier League looks like they'll gunning for an European trophy this season and I think that'll be a great feat for Ruben Amorim and his men

That’s unbelievable from Manchester United. For a team that came from behind to equalize a 1:1 Real Sociedad, nope, I didn’t expect that of them. Not even with them having to play from the Old Trafford. Besides, Real Sociedad isn’t exactly a bad team, they are one of the Spanish giants and league favorite.
For those of you that watched this game, just how the hell did Manchester United got this out of Real Sociedad!

I was busy with the Chelsea game and though they won, I wasn’t very impressed with their play. Palmer was just out there looking to get on the score sheet, the Copenhagen side was busy not being able to control passes with the box and far too many goal scoring opportunities was missed on both sides.

Manchester United are trying to improve their performances, because I can see that they made a wonderful performance against Real Sociedad tonight, since with their much effort they were able to lead them by 4-0. Manchester United have directly advanced to the next round without many challenges.

I hope they can keep up their performances, because by the time Man United starts playing well, once all these fans begin to be proud of them, they will later disappoint them due to their lack of consistency, and I think that is the main reason why their performances are not moving forward all this while.

Let me put this image up here to give us an insight into what the records of the game look like tonight and indeed Manchester United did a great job tonight by making sure that they moved from the 1:1 draw in the first half to finish up with winning of 4 goals, this is something to commend Manchester United on in this second leg of the knockout level in the Europa League this season Real Sociedad players tried all there could to make an equalizing goal when the second goal in the game was added by Manchester United striker B. Fernandes who scored man United second goals in the 50` minutes into the game.

Man United finally looking like a team even tho they were losing they managed to win the game heavily in the end. The red card helped them a lot to get a big win. Fenerbahce currently trying to score in extra time but it looks like we will see penalties in that matches.

[Amphenomenon]

With the way am seeing this game there is no home advantage home advantage because Sociadad is playing like a team that is at home am really afraid of Manchester United making it to the next round because this game is going to be difficult for United to win, Manchester United has to be more on the offensive so that they can on the advantage because if Manchester United allows Sociadad to play a free flowing football it's going to affects them

Manchester ended up trashing Real Sociedad 4 goals to 1 with an agg of 5 - 2. To be frank how the game started showed it would be a tough one but after United penalty kick, scored by their main man again, before Jon Aramburu got sent off from Real Sociedad some minutes after he was sub into the game. Towards the match ending Bruno Fernandes finally got his hattrick and before Diogo Dalot made it 4 goals to 1 at extra time.

United were able to come out the victor at home after getting a draw away in the first leg which many can't really blamed them for since they did try to do well in that game but tonight would be a great night for any United fan, let them enjoy it now because it doesn't quite often, lol.

Let's not call them a giant team or something else, they are right in the middle of La Liga, they got hit with more than a 3 goals difference beating this year by Barca, Betis, and Getafe and they are known for getting goals like there is no tomorrow, one fo the worst goal difference for that placing,
Not that Manchester is any team you can be a proud fan of, but at least in terms of what they might achieve there is a clear difference in potential between those two.

Anyhow, not going to say a word on who disserved what, I've read enough post-match reaction to know this is a gunpowder barrel form miles away.
