Today’s Europa League matchup featured Real Sociedad vs. Manchester United. Both teams put up outstanding performances on the field, making it a very entertaining match.
Real Sociedad held Manchester United at bay admirably in the opening period, with Cristiano Ronaldo coming the closest. His spectacular header did indeed go in, but a review revealed that he was offside.
The second half began with another Ronaldo shot whistling past the crossbar, but the Txuri-Urdin substantially improved after that. Alexander Sorloth made two aerial tries, but he was unable to outshine David de Gea.
