MANCHESTER: Manchester United conceded two late own goals to allow Sevilla to snatch a 2-2 draw in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final at Old Trafford on Thursday .
United were reduced to 10 men when defender Lisandro Martinez was carried off injured, and Youssef En-Nesyri's stoppage-time header glanced off Harry Maguire into the goal to give Sevilla a huge lift ahead of next week's second leg."We should have scored three or four ... and then some unlucky moments with injuries. And then we conceded two own goals and that's bad luck. We have to deal with it. Of course, we have to learn that we have to kill the game.
The Austrian doubled his tally seven minutes later, latching on to a fine pass from Anthony Martial and finishing well."A rollercoaster," Sabitzer said."We had to finish the game off, it's a draw, was not what we wanted, have to go to Seville and get it down there. Martinez appeared to suffer a serious ankle injury and was carried off the pitch by two Sevilla players who are his Argentina teammates.
