Manchester United boss and captain are determined to end the season with the Europa League trophy

After four days of cracking Champions League football now, it’s time for Europa League semi-finals from tonight. In the first semi-final English giant Manchester United is going to face Spanish side Sevilla to secure their place in the finals.

Manchester United was 3rd in their domestic league and already qualified for the next season’s Champions League .But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side is determined to end the season with a trophy.

United was unbeaten in the league since February to secure their place in top 3. They only lost one game since then in all competition. The only defeat was against Chelsea in the FA Cup Semi-Final.

Solskjaer was asked about their journey of this season in the pre-match press conference ahead of the semi-final against Sevilla. He said: “We have good possibility to finish the season with a trophy, this is the only way we could have done it.”

Manchester United Captain Harry Maguire said: “I joined this club to win trophies, I fully expect to win trophies while I’m at this club. Getting to semi-finals isn’t good enough for this club. “

“It’s been a promising year in the Premier League, we’ve finished third. It’s not something that this club wants to do, finish third, but at the start of the season from where we were last year, I’m sure a lot of people would have taken that.”

“But, for the future, that’s not where we want to be. We want to be winning trophies, the Premier League and other cups.”

Sevilla boss Julien Lopetegui showed great respect to Red Devils. He said: “I think United are the best United in the last few years.”

“They’ve found their football, they have not lost since January in the Premier League, such a competitive league, and they are in the right place. They’re a total team in many respects and are going to force us to play a great game if we are going to be able to compete with them.”

Sevilla was 4th in the La Liga 17 points behind the champion Real Madrid. Their performance was decent enough throughout the season. Their recent past in Europa League was also astonishing.

Last time Manchester United faced Sevilla, was in Champions League round of 16 in 2017-18 season United was beaten by the Sevilla. Can Manchester United hit back and go forward to the business end of this competition?
