3-0! Manchester United is not good at Premier League and redeems the UEFA Cup, one foot has entered the finals

In the early morning of May 2, in the first leg of the UEFA semi-finals at the San Mames Stadium, Manchester United defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-0 away, and had one foot entered the final.

This season, Manchester United's performance can be described as "ice and fire". In the Premier League, the team's performance was surprising and once struggled to the bottom of the standings. However, once it comes to the European arena, the team from Old Trafford seems to be completely reborn. As of now, Manchester United is the only team to remain unbeaten in the three major European Cups (8 wins and 5 draws).

This time I was visiting St. Mames, I thought it would be a fierce battle, but Manchester United led by Ruben Amorin played a surprising performance. In the first half, Casemiro and Bruno Fernandez, who scored twice, scored one after another, helping Manchester United establish a 3-0 lead early.

After the change of sides, Manchester United still maintains a strong offensive, and the long-range shots outside the penalty area are extremely threatening. Despite this, Bilbao goalkeeper Aguire Sabala performed bravely and tried hard to ensure that the goal was no longer lost.

This victory is Manchester United's first win in regular time after eight consecutive games in various competitions, and is also the second defeat in Athletic Bilbao's last 11 games. The second leg will be played at Old Trafford. If Bilbao wants to make a comeback, he needs to score at least 3 goals away.

At the beginning of the game, Manchester United had a chance to get a fantastic start. Garnacho once sent the ball into the goal, but was judged invalid for offside. Bilbao immediately launched a counterattack, and Berenguel and Inaghi Williams created two excellent opportunities, but the defense line composed of Onana, Casemiro and Lindelov performed steadily and resolved the dangers many times. The turning point of the game appeared in the 30th minute. Harry Maguire made a wonderful cross on the right, Ugat headed the ball, and Casemiro jumped high in the penalty area to score, opening the first record for Manchester United.

The house was leaking and the rain was raining all night, and the Bilbao defender defeated Hoylen in the penalty area and was sent off with a red card. The team had to face the match with one less person. Bruno Fernandez calmly took the penalty and expanded the score to 2-0. Just 8 minutes later, Fernandez received a wonderful pass from Ugat's heel and scored with a light push, completing a second goal in his personal score. If Mazravi hadn't hit the crossbar in injury time, Manchester United would have had the chance to enter the break with a 4-goal lead. In the second half, Manchester United played more cautiously and focused on controlling the ball. Although Bilbao, who played at home, tried hard to find a chance to score, his offense seemed messy and the disappointment of the players and fans was beyond words. Casemiro had a chance to expand the score, and his header hit the post. Fernandez and Garnacho also had a shot, but neither could break through the goal guarded by Aguire Sabala.
