UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[l99l]

Football is like that. Bilbao started the match well but Manchester came and scored. Before Bilbao could get over the shock of the goal, Manchester United won a penalty after a long VAR review. It was both a penalty and Vivian got a red card and Bilbao lost the match. They are currently 0-2 behind, they are missing a player as a player. They made the round very difficult. Bilbao's job is very, very difficult. Manchester was playing well. We will wait and see if Manchester will want to keep the score or attack and increase the difference.

I think we are heading towards an English final. Manchester United and Tottenham are currently beating their opponents, the first match is still early to say about the final, but this is what it looks like.
Would any Manchester United fan believe that Manchester United would win 3-0 in the first half before the match?
Manchester United is playing an unexpected game, Bilbao's job is very difficult in the second half, Bilbao fans are very nervous.

Spurs and Man Utd are having awful seasons, really quite shameful results and performances domestically but here they both are in the EL semi finals with a chance to get CL qualification by winning it.

They would face each other in the final if they get past their semi final opponents. I have a feeling Spurs might find it easier to make the final. Man Utd have a really tough opponent in Bilbao.

Your predictions are correct. Manchester are finding it difficult to curtail Athletic Club. The Red Devils have not had a single shot in this game. Meanwhile Tothenham are winning against Bodø/Glimt after Brennan Johnson scored in the fourth minute. I don't think both English sides will make it to the finals. From the performance now, it seems Tothenham will make it while Manchester United might not.

Currently, United have scored two goals under seven minutes. The first was with a beautiful header from Casemiro on the 30th minutes and five munutes later Hojiluund was fouled inside the 18 yard box of their host which resulted to a penalty and a red card. Fernandez stylishly took the penalty which ended up at the back of the net on the 37th minutes to make the scoreline 0-2. It's gonna be an easy win for United because they have been in control of the game since after the first ten minutes of kick off time.

Manchester United has not struggled in this match since it started. The first 15mins was used to find the tempo of the match. Manchester United came to give their all because they know that it is their only gateway to the champions league.

Manchester United is leaving the first half with 3 goals in their elbow. This will make it difficult for ATH to make a come back in the second leg. With ATH playing shorting one, there is a room for Manchester United to increase their goal margin in the second half.

Well the game in Spain didn’t go as I expected 

The tie is effectively over, United lead 3-0 at HT and Bilbao have 10 men.

[Juse14]

According to our bookies, Athletico Bilbao are the favourites to win but when it comes to real game play Manchester United has dominated enjoying over 60% ball possession..but unfortunately they haven't had better goal scoring chances and they better get creative if they are really hungry for some silverware as their fellow opponents Tottenham are doing justice!

Come on United , against all odds do something.

GG MU...!!!! The first half has ended and now it's time for a break before the second half starts but Manchester United has led 3-0 over Athletic Bilbao. Manchester United really appeared fiery in this match, they burned Athletic Bilbao who played as the host. To hell with MU's position in the EPL standings, in fact they performed very well in the UEFA European League.

The second half will start soon, I hope that MU will continue to increase its advantage. Athletic Bilbao only played with 10 men, because one of their players got a red card, clearly this is an opportunity for Man United to increase the aggregate so as not to give Athletic Bilbao a chance to make a comeback in the second match later.

[Adbitco]

Athletic Bilbao 0 Vs Manchester United 3 HT
I'm no longer surprised at Manchester United exploit
S in the Europa League anymore because like I said before, I'm tired of thinking that they would lose at every stage of this competition before now. They kept on proving me wrong, so as I said today earlier, I'm keeping an open mind while watching them play and at the say time they deserve to be were they are now, their league form has absolutely nothing to do with their form in this competition and they have proven it time and time again.

The score is now 3:0 in halftime, i could not believe my eyes when Bruno Fernandes netted a brace after Casemiro's goal. Athletic Bilbao spoilt their game by getting a red card after United scored the first goal and from the look of things their game has already been ruined because how can they get a comeback from 3 goals in the second half with a red card, it's impossible even if they didn't get a red card. I knew that Amorim was up to something and cannot allow the Europa League to slip away from him since it has always been his dream to take the red devils to the Champions League through an automatic ticket from winning the Europa League. Manchester United is now in control of this match, and they need to score as many goals as they can so that they won't have to wait for the outcome of the second leg again.

I never expected that United will dominate this match away from home. This shows that Bilbao game strategy is weak to stop United from winning away from home. One thing that I observed is that United is faster and more aggressive than Bilbao who couldn't pass through United defense. Lyon match was more difficult to United to win. It seems that two English team would play in the finals.

Very tempting odds my friend.
I like the way you take risks but are you betting parlay or single bet? personally I probably wouldn't put them together as a parlay, the reason being that Spurs vs Bodo could be a bust anyway Spurs are playing at home and there is no reason for them to lose but I tend to think it will be a draw, on the other hand I support your hunch about Bilbao and Man Utd, I am pretty sure Bilbao will win this first leg.

I made a parlay bet, but unfortunately Bilbao lost Dani Vivian to a red card. This gives Man United a great chance to win the first leg. And for the Spurs match, I initially believed that Bodø/Glimt was always a surprising team that could always beat stronger teams. But somehow Bodø/Glimt mentality was different against Tottenham. And now Spurs are 2 points ahead. While Bodø/Glimt have not been able to score.

Manchester United have shown that there are definitely serious with this season Europa League this season which I think they will definitely be able to gain that trophy because just take a look at the performance they displayed in the first half it just seem like Bilbao where at the pitch to watch the game. And I don’t think Bilbao will be able to even meet up to the 3 goals for now and it’s still not certain as Manchester United might still add more goals in the second half but still let see how the game end

On the other hand Tottenham are also playing and amazing game even though I don’t watch the game but still I saw there lifescore and there are winning with 2 goals which is a nice performance for them today.

[Chilwell]

Well we have 2 matches today and the most interesting is Bilbo vs Man United, this is not something easy to predict because both teams at the same level which we can see from the previous match, we can no longer rely on the home team after seeing the results in the Champions League yesterday yeah lots of surprises happened. Man United target today is of course to get at least 1 point if this goes well then the situation will be better in the second leg, do you think both teams will draw?

For Tottenham, the match should not be difficult because almost everyone predicts they will win easily. Indeed Bodo Glimt managed to reach the semifinals but i think it's related to luck and to reach the final there is no guarantee that luck will be on their side, so it's not an exaggeration if we favor Tottenham. I hope there are no surprises here.

Wow I'm so excited to see how this matches are going, the two England teams that are still involved in this competition have scored in the first half. And the funny thing about this teams is that the totally abandoned their domestic League but not completely, they make sure they qualify for the next season, then decide to focus on this Europa and I know maybe is what I'm thinking. They really focus on this competition I mean Europa League because since they will not lay their hand in any of outside competition apart from domestic League that is why there are seriously engaging in this Europa League. Winning Europa will give them higher chance to participate in champions league but only one team can qualify. Let wait and see how the second half will end.

[LGD2Business]

Like everyone else, I expected Athletic Bilbao to do better, but first they conceded a goal and fell behind, and then it got worse. There was a penalty and a red card. The red card was right, he was pulling the player who was going to score, but before that there was an appeal for handball. Despite everything, going into the locker room 2-0 would have made the pep talk there softer and more hopeful, but they conceded the third goal in extra time. Things are not going well for Athletic Bilbao. I'm sure even Manchester United fans didn't expect such a score in the first half.

[salad daging]

Well the game in Spain didn’t go as I expected 

The tie is effectively over, United lead 3-0 at HT and Bilbao have 10 men.

Luck comes from Manchester United, which always finds a gap to win at any cost, and now against Bilbao, which has led 3-0 in addition to Bilbao playing 10 people, it is an advantage for the Red Devils.

On the other hand the English representative also won Tottenham - So there is a possibility of this between Manchester United vs Tottenham in this scenario that I think.
There is still a second leg anything can change, but with the goal aggregate being so far away that is probably the real scenario.

It's half time already, and no doubt, Manchester United has indeed displayed far beyond expectations in tonight's game against Athletic Club with a whooping 3 goals to nil, of which the first goal was scored by Casemire at 30 minutes, while second and third by Fernandez at 37 minutes (penalty) and 45 minutes respectively, without a single card unlike Athletic that is currently one man down already with both red and yellow cards, after "Dani Vivain" was said to have pulls Rasmus Hoejlund by the shirt which resulted to a heavy protest by his teammates immediately a penalty kick was awarded by the referee at early 35 minutes into the first half. And Manchester United is actually taking good use of this one man down opportunity, as judging from the way this game is going, it's possible Manchester United is likely to score over 5 goals entirely in this match.

[Joca97]

Man Utd is leading 0-3 and it just crazy. This is the result i didnt expect from this two teams. From the current result i see Man Utd in the final and before the match i didnt see this happening. This red card messed everything up for Bilbao. As it looks currently we will see a final between Tottenham and Man Utd

Manchester United started scoring before the red card and it is really surprising to see the Manchester United we know playing another football and showing some skills!
both English Premier League teams are in fact leading with 3 goals to nothing and since the first leg and before the end of these matches, it appears that the final game will be an EPL one.

It is becoming very obvious this will happen. It has been a while we witnessed all English Europa league finals. From the beginning of this season, I had predicted that English big names will make it to the finals. I wasn't the only one who made such a prediction. If you check the result of the poll in this thread, you will discover that the highest number of voters voted for Manchester United, followed by Tottenham and that is exactly what is playing out.
First time I see predictions follow as expected.

I know that the ref had the right to do what he did but honestly the Red card spoilt the game. It was an interesting encounter with Atletic Bilboa pressing the most and they were likely to take the lead.
Manchester United scoring first only spied up things which for the neutrals like me was what we wanted to see.
The penalty was enough and the game would have still had vibes but the red card just messed it all up.
Manchester United has one foot in the final so does Tottenham Hotspurs. It could easily be an all English premier League team final.

Everybody is showing there skills now because they no there will no longer be an equalizer on this match, Manchester United has won a great competitor because Athletic Club was not far from what they said Manchester United might do on this Europa. However they did not win by the card because what you said happen before the card was a truth that the wining has already started, Fernandes want to experience champion league in Manchester. Tottenham Hotspur has also gain too much advantage on Bodoe/Glimt but I would have prefer they hadn't cause why Bodoe/Glimt score a goal when it was supposed to be a non goal today on Bodoe/Glimt.

Same here, Manchester United beating Athletic Bilbao 3 - 0 away from home is something I as a person didn't actually believe will happen. Yes, I believed Manchester United will win Athletic Bilbao or worse case scenario a draw but this score line wasn't expected from my though. At home Athletic Bilbao couldn't score a single goal at Gomez that's really disappointing for a team that thought they will win the competition some time ago.

Very surprising indeed, I also didn't expect this kind of performance from them and this kind of result I didn't expect it. I thought Athletic Bilbao will be a tougher opponent for them but it seems they are even easier than the opponents Manchester United have faced so far. It could have been different if Bilbao didn't receive a red card but the red card give United the advantage to extend their lead and they did. I am sure they will do anything possible to hold on to the lead till the end of next leg and probably we will have two English teams in the final if they both can hold on to their lead  in the second leg.

Another opportunity for Tottenham to finally win a trophy but facing Manchester United will make it difficult for them. Let's wait and see how the second leg turns out first before talking about the final.
