ManUnited’s bitter hat-trick: “If Sancho had been there…”

After Manchester United’s unfortunate European League break, coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer announces transfers. Victor Lindelöf and Bruno Fernandes still meet on the field.

Of course, the lip readers got right to work. But actually the TV pictures alone were enough to suspect that Bruno Fernandes and Victor Lindelöf were not exchanging flowery compliments at that moment.

When Luuk de Jong scored in the 78th minute of this European League semi-final 2-1 for FC Seville, the two Manchester United pros clashed. Too easily, the Dutch had been able to transport a flank at the five-metre area with his foot into the network. Lindelöf had apparently relied on Aaron Wan-Bissaka, and the one on Lindelöf.
