Manchester United suffered a frustrating evening in the first leg of their UEFA Europa League quarter-final against Sevilla, losing a two-goal lead and seeing both centre-backs limp off injured.

Marcel Sabitzer fired Man Utd ahead on 14 minutes, collecting a pass from Bruno Fernandes, before his shot was deflected in. The Austrian midfielder had his second six minutes later, this time played in by Anthony Martial before finishing to make it 2-0.

Raphael Varane, who had cleared off the line just before half-time, was replaced during the break with Harry Maguire.

Man Utd pressed for a third, but Sevilla hit back thanks to two own goals in the final six minutes.

Former Manchester City star Jesus Navas' cutback went in off Tyrell Malacia and then Youssef En-Nesyri's stoppage-time header hit Maguire before looping in.
