2024/2025 UEFA Europa League

Match Report
United took the lead as Christian Eriksen rounded off a sweeping team move by blasting into the back of the net.
Four minutes after half-time, though, Fenerbahce were level.
Allan Saint-Maximin's cross from deep picked out Youssef En-Nesyri and he headed beyond Andre Onana.
Onana had earlier made a sensational double save - the second a superb tip over the crossbar - while Manuel Ugarte made a phenomenal last-ditch tackle to prevent a certain goal.
Onana's magic had Mourinho laughing in disbelief and they even shared a joke at half-time.
But the Special One's mood turned drastically when Ugarte challenged Bright Osayi-Samuel in the United box.
Mourinho demanded a penalty - but instead his furious protests only got him a red card.
