Man Utd manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer delivered an emphatic and immediate response when asked about the success of their season, and defended his players over a common criticism.
Man Utd suffered Europa League final heartbreak in extraordinary fashion by going down to Villarreal 11-10 in the penalty shootout. The Yellow Submarine took the lead through Gerard Moreno in the 29th minute, but Man Utd’s own centre-forward Edinson Cavani restored parity soon after the break. Both sides cancelled each other out for the remainder of the match and extra time, setting up a nerve-wracking shootout.
