UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[ShowOff]

Leg 2 Sevilla will be different because they already know the way Manchester United play.
The same situation is likely to happen again if Erik ten Hag returns to play Maguire when they travel to Sevilla headquarters.
If Licha can't strengthen Manchester United's defense in leg 2, another option might be that Lindelof will fill Licha's position.

Manchester United's performance in my opinion is still better than Sevilla apart from the two own goals. I think it was purely down to Seville's luck because they looked very difficult to build up throughout the match. Manchester United opened up a lot of space in the last few minutes which Sevilla took advantage of, but I'm sure Manchester United will find a good solution in the second leg.

I will only say that Sevilla is a difficult team for anyone to play against in England team. Sevilla's form has been poor in La Liga, but they can still be expected to beat their underdog favorites in a game. So Ten Hag must be quite serious with Sevilla, otherwise Sevilla will really advance to the semi-finals this season.

In fact, Sporting performed exceptionally well against Juventus. At one point, Sporting's performance looked like they would be able to beat Juventus in style. But the player of the Juventus team was able to score a goal in an extraordinary opportunity. And later, Juventus played a great defensive game which failed to pay for Sporting's goal.

yes, Sporting played well, in fact, they could have made 15 shots. much better than what Juve did. both teams have the same way of playing. even the two coaches used the same form of players in this match.
with a 1 goal advantage, Juventus are slightly favored in the second leg. but they will play at home to Sporting. and it could have surprised Juventus in the second leg. this advantage still does not make Juve comfortable. at least they can hold Sporting in the second leg.

[gabbie2010]

Yes, the second leg will be a very tough match for the MU team, especially since there are several core players such as Martine, Varane, Shaw and Rashford, they cannot play in the second leg meeting later, without these players it is certain that the MU squad will not be able to do much things when playing because if you look at the last few matches they have played, the MU team is very dependent on Martinez and Varane and when these two players don't play it makes MU's defense very easy to penetrate by opposing players.

Without Martinez and Varane, Manchester United have got a big problem even scaling more than just the Europa League. With Bruno Scott McTominay out, especially Bruno Fernandez, Manchester United have some midfield concerns because Bruno is very important to this team, they will look to Erikson who is just back from injury. With Rashford still out, Manchester United will depend on Sancho, Anthony, Martial to be able to put something through.

The second leg will be very difficult for Manchester United, they made the big mistake not getting a good advantage over Sevilla at old Trafford, defeating Sevilla at home with the advantage they will have will not be easy.

Man Utd could have sealed a comfortable win with a wide goal margin to make the second leg less difficult unfortunately missed that opportunity now they had put themselves in a very tight position with the calibre of their quality players out injured and on suspension, Sevilla now has a slight advantage playing the second leg in Spain, Man Utd don't have any other options than to play Maguire, Fred, Casimero, Eriksen and the other attackers probably they can come out with a positive result, however the team lack depth even vying for top 4 position in EPL will be a difficult task with nine matches to be played in April Erik Ten Hag has has a lot work ahead in the coming weeks.

[jakdanyel]

It was a really problematic match for Juventus honestly. Sporting were playing really comfortably despite playing as the away side. They had numerous goal attempts throughout the match. But Juventus still somehow did their thing and got a 1-0 win at the end. This was a really classic Juventus to me. Especially after they get ahead first it becomes harder to answer them and make a comeback later on.

Sporting seemed like they could have done it in fact. Because especially in the stoppage time they wasted an unbelievable chance. The goalkeeper Perin's two consecutive saves were amazing and so critical for keeping this 1-0 score to the end. Juventus got a really important win before the second leg for sure. But this won't be enough for them either.

Because their performance wasn't good enough. If they don't improve this then Sporting can eliminate them as well.

It is quite unfortunate that Manchester united couldn't win their match yesterday. This has put them to the extreme end and they need to play tirelessly in Spain for them to be able to qualify. I still hope the ETH will be able to come up with a better strategy in order for his boys to win the match. Injury has put the team in a bad form to face Sevilla in the second leg. Sevilla is a poor form and find it very difficult to net the post yesterday, which makes me have little confidence that there a possibility that Man united will qualify to the next stage.

The match ended in a draw also experienced Leverkusen who hosted their opponent Gilloise with a score of 1-1. Actually, there are many who favor Leverkusen to win in this match, but from the start I was quite doubtful that Leverkusen could win this match and of course this is an advantage for Gilloise to be able to hold a draw at home to Leverkusen. The second leg will take place in a week and on this occasion Gilloise will be the host, even though Leverkusen's chances of winning this time are relatively small, I'm pretty sure they will be superior on aggregate in this match later.

This is one of surprising result besides Manchester United vs Sevilla and Leverkusen as favourite status but they were failed to utilized home match and actually Leverkusen has displayed aggressive performance in this match but Saint-Gilloise can performing well and they can able to managed their defense until end of first half and second half is more interesting because surprisingly Saint-Gilloise can able to leading the match from Boniface goal but luckly Leverkusen can avoiding to lose after Florian Wirtz can equalized the score

This result is very favorable for Saint-Gilloise because for the second leg they will be playing at home and we all know on round of 16 Saint-Gilloise can able to overcome another Bundesliga team Union Berlin before and Leverkusen should be aware to this record because Saint-Gilloise had good records while against Germany team this season

That's right, the main reason I doubt Leverkusen enough to win in the first leg is that Gilloise was able to hold Union Berlin in the first leg of the round of 16 and in the end Gilloise eliminated Union Berlin in the second leg. Will the same thing be repeated? considering that Gilloise's opponent was a German team again in this quarter-final round. But another thing that could be exciting is that Leverkusen can turn things around at Gilloise's cage and at the same time break Gilloise's advantage over the German team later.

Sevilla benefited from two own goals from Manchester United players, without these two goals Sevilla could not score a single goal at Old Trafford. Manchester United who controlled the game continued to press the visitors without giving the slightest room to develop the game. Player injuries will be a problem for Manchester United when they travel to Sevilla in the second leg, Ten Hag needs to maintain the performance of his players to get a win in the second leg.

Sevilla who have appeared inconsistent in La Liga, were able to show different performances in the Europa League, the second leg is their last chance to stay in the Europa League, they have to play discipline and need to look for advantages when playing at home.

That's right, the main reason I doubt Leverkusen enough to win in the first leg is that Gilloise was able to hold Union Berlin in the first leg of the round of 16 and in the end Gilloise eliminated Union Berlin in the second leg.

But indeed this is quite another surprise for the Europa League.
Last season there were Rangers and now there is Union Saint which is indeed quite interesting in terms of performance.
Even though in terms of their condition they are at a league level which is actually quite different but in terms of their game they don't seem to hesitate and always show their best, even if they don't lose in the last 10 minutes this could be a win for them. Maybe in the second leg I will take the time to watch them after in the previous matches only the highlights and livescore.

Although I don’t think the second goal Manchester United conceded wasn’t Harry maguire’s fault but it’s just funny how he would be in the wrong place and then gave away the own goal.

I believe Manchester United has the game on lock and keys and they were definitely running away with the win until they lost concentration, I also think the Manchester United should win the second leg.

Apart from the fact that harry Maguire scored own goal, Manchester United fans are always against that young man. The news wouldn't get to this extent of it were to be a player like Casmiro or Varane.  the draw against Sevilla wasn't just because of Maguire, I will also blame Ten Hag for his wrong substitution in the match. His overconfidence also contributes to the result MU had in the match, cuz Up till today I'm still very much surprised about Varane and Bruno's substitution from the pitch.

Indeed, Ten Hag is the one that must be the most responsible for the result of this match. He is too overconfident, considering that it has been enough with 2 goals, and considered that Sevilla was not as strong as he thought. It might be true that Sevilla was not strong enough, but he didn't consider and probably never thought that mistakes can be done by anyone, especially in this match, their own players made the mistakes for their OG, TWICE, that's twice, not once. This is frustrating. Moreover, one of the OG was created by someone who was always challenged to play in the squad but seemed forced to enter, and indeed it was too early to consider their position saving at that time so they made a bad substitution.

You are right. Not only Maguire did the mistake, but Ten Hag also made a big mistake by changing good players with wrong players. Also, Ten Hag seems to change the strategy/tactic in 2nd half, he made Man United players reduce the intensity of the attacks, so they didn't play aggressively as in 1st half. I think it was a very very wrong way to defend their leading, as the result they missed the big chance to win the match.

Well, I agree that it is too early to change players. I don't know why Ten Hag should change some key players quickly (Varane, Bruno Fernandes, Martial, and Sancho).

Like I was damned, I had a bad night after the draw, the draw even felt like a big loss to me, I blame Malacia for the first own goal, he wasn't aware of his surroundings. For the second I won't blame Harry Maguire no, he's had nothing to do with that, if he was in contact with the ball first I'd bash him but it strucked Nesri's head before Harry Maguire.

Erik Ten Hag messed up big time with the substitution, like Bruno Fernandez would miss the next game, why not allow him play fulltime in that match? I'm done lamenting like a cry baby, the game already has been drawn. Hopefully we get to win Sevilla. I'm not so sure how it'll go.

[lizarder]

Manchester United was just few minutes to win Sevilla for the first time in history, before Ten Tag brought flop Maguire into the game, everything changed. A lot of defending errors and poor control, the game was lost because of poor tactics from the coach. He made wrong changes, they might not survive the second leg in Spain. It's so sad, Maguire should just leave the team.

The mistake made by Erik Ten Hak entered Maguire by replacing Varane, in the first half Man United really dominated the game, it's just that they have a weak spot in the center back sector because Tyrell Malacia made several mistakes. Entering the second half, Manchester United's defense became increasingly uncoordinated and Maguire and Tyrell Malacia made many mistakes, so Sevilla's two goals came from the mistakes of these two players.

Even though in the first leg Man United got a draw at home, I think Man United's chances are still quite open. Erik Ten Hak learned a lot in this match and in the second leg he will try to maximize it better and I'm still sure Ten Hak will give a positive result in the second leg, even though many people say Man United's chances are smaller than Sevilla.

[Pulsar77]

It could have ended much better for Leverkusen actually. Because they wasted countless goal opportunities before their opponent got ahead. I remember Wirtz being really selfish by not passing the ball to one of the two players free to score and wasting the opportunity instead. There were many more opportunities to benefit from as well but it didn't happen anyway. Union SG were under pressure for some time but they got over it by scoring a goal which was really devastating for Leverkusen.

Wirtz made up for that incident by scoring a really nice goal by a finesse shot to the corner later on. He is really a skilled guy of course and he can even be the most important player for Leverkusen now. Anyway this could have finished with a win for them but this is a disadvantageous result unfortunately.

[terrorJR]

Ten Hag should now really do well for Leg two. Giving rotation to the players so they don't get too tired is very good, but for conditions that are not really necessary, it's actually better to avoid it.
Maguire has been out of action for a long time and once given his chance in 45 minutes of the second half he dashed hopes that had been built since the first half. and aside from Manchester United I think many bettors are disappointed for this match.

Ten Hag is partially responsible for the defeat since the substitution made in the team weren't helpful and made them weaker comparing to the change made in Sevilla side.
For Maguire, he simply didn't change and he could be blamed for his position and reaction in the second Sevilla goal. His agility and responsiveness levels are quite low for a professional player and for someone with his salary in a team like ManU.
I said earlier that Sevilla are the historic team in Europa League and that they will have a hard time in second leg even if they play home. Well, I guess ManU will have a harder time with Fernandes missing that game.

The problem is there really isn't anything that can be done either when some of their core players have problems in the match, especially for Martinez who is indeed injured which of course makes a difficult choice in this case.
But even so, this is really bad 2 own goals should really be a real lesson for them for the second Leg and of course they have to pray that Martinez's injury is not too bad and can compete for Leg 2 later.

It seemed if sporting was dominating the match even though the game played in allianz arena. Sporting was making so many goal attempts against juventus. The only problem if the team is lack proper finishing. I hope that sporting will able to do the same when juventus will be playing away. Losing 1-0 is not a hard score to catch up. Sporting may try to repeat the same result against arsenal. Sporting lisbon is a black horse in the europa league right now. The second leg gonna be a very interesting match. Juventus will be getting so much pressure from sporting.
Im sure about this by seeing the statistic from the first leg. Sporting was able to prevent juventus to get big ball possessions. The second leg gonna be crazy match for sporting.

Sporting have been unlucky at Allianz, but they still have a good chance in the second leg. Juventus are not safe just by winning 1 goal in the first leg, so I have not removed Sporting from the chance to qualify for the Europa League semi-finals this season.

Sporting will likely try to do better at home in the second leg. If they fail to score in the first leg, then they should be able to find a solution in the second leg. Sporting's advantage is that they will be playing at home, but they also have an advantage because Juventus didn't have many goals in the first leg.

Maguire was one of the reasons Manchester United experienced a draw when the winning position was in sight. We admit that and there are still other mistakes that are a bit neglected like OG Malacia, substitutions that lack playing time at club level like Elanga, Pellistri.

Now, Erik ten Hag is starting to find answers to what happened in that match.
Erik ten Hag could have pulled off Varane and brought on Maguire, but it wasn't right in our opinion when it was Martial who managed to set up an assist on Marcel Sabitzer's second goal by sending on Weghorst.
But we believe that the opportunity to qualify for the next round is still there for Manchester United even though it has to go through hard work in the 2nd leg.

[yayayo]

Well, the last words have not yet been spoken about Manchester United. 2-0 and a few minutes to play. And then it will still be 2-2. Does this say something about Sevila's resilience or does it say something about Manchester United? I think it's a combination of both. But they will be fine at United. They were in the semi-finals with 1.5 legs and now I have to see it again. At Sevila they have come to believe in it and if you can play 2-2 away at Old Trafford, I think you can also beat United at home. United will go into the return match with an unpleasant feeling. It is to be hoped that United can recover. Perhaps Ten Hag is the most disappointed of all.

ya.ya.yo!

Well, the last words have not yet been spoken about Manchester United. 2-0 and a few minutes to play. And then it will still be 2-2. Does this say something about Sevila's resilience or does it say something about Manchester United?

Technically it was Manchester United's defensive error towards the end of the match. They were less effective in making Sevilla's attack scheme reach their defensive area which in the end had to receive two equalizing goals. Even though Sevilla is lucky, Manchester United has a good form in my opinion.

At Sevila they have come to believe in it and if you can play 2-2 away at Old Trafford, I think you can also beat United at home. United will go into the return match with an unpleasant feeling. It is to be hoped that United can recover. Perhaps Ten Hag is the most disappointed of all.

Sevilla has good confidence to win the home match in the second leg. But because Manchester United are in good form, I think they also have a good chance to be expected to win. The match was still interesting because both of them drew 2-2.
