Manchester United are Runner-ups in the Europa League Group Stage

DBasia.news – Manchester United managed to steal the victory when they visited Real Sociedad on the last matchday of the Europa League group stage.

In the match held in San Sebastian last night, the visitors secured 3 points thanks to Alejandro Garnacho’s only goal in the 17th minute.

This victory at once avenged the Red Devils, who in the early September meeting last lost 1-0 at Old Trafford.

Despite this result, Erik ten Hag’s team had to settle for finishing second in Group E as they lost on goal difference to their Spanish rival.

Both teams have 15 points from 6 games played, but La Real have a goal difference of 8, while United have just 7.

At 18 years & 125 days, Alejandro Garnacho became the youngest non-English player to score for Manchester United in European competition, overtaking George Best (18 years & 158 days against Djurgardens IF in 1964).

United must immediately shift their focus to the Premier League, as they will play away to Aston Villa headquarters on Sunday (6/11) the day after tomorrow.
