Real Sociedad 0:1 Man Utd - Zirkzee (57')


Real Sociedad 1:1 Man Utd - Oyarzabal (70' pen)

 

[thisisnottaken1]

Well that fecking shit.

Not confident for the return leg.

 

[calodo2003]

How did we play?

 

[Annihilate Now!]

They'd never have scored without that ridiculous penalty.

Frustrating

 

[PoTMS]

Two really shite teams.

 

[Solius]

We were decent. Sociedad awful and deserved nothing tbh. Needed a jammy pen to even get themselves up for it and fed off the crowd.

 

[baskinginthesun]

Should've probably won 2 or 3 nil in hindsight.

 

[Chicharo]

Sociedad are one of the worst teams we've faced this season, but as the game went on we looked more vulnerable and less dangerous.
Won't be surprised if they actually beat us at Old Trafford.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

More toothless than a crack-ridden alleyway.

 

[tomaldinho1]

Deflating to both know how bad Sociedad are and that we are very much at their level.

 

[edgecutter]

Wish this was on at 8 rather that 5.45. Could easily put you to sleep.

 

[Fooza]

we got lucky, they got lucky

oh well, i cant wait for this season to end. This team isn't it

we could have wasted more money on Dorgu, that'd be manutd

 

[2 man midfield]

Shit. Like proooooooper shit

 

[united for life]

Poor match. Ugly display. Wingbacks useless. Midfield useless. Striker useless. Shit we are bad

 

[Yoro]

Game hinged on Garnacho missing very presentable chances.

Dorgu looks crap.

We gave the game away and were hanging on against a shit team.

 

[criticalanalysis]

Yoro and de Ligt did well. As did Casemiro and Bruno (minus the penalty stupidity). Zirkzee deserved his goal and played well.

Everyone else was really meh.

 

[VP89]

Good up to the penalty. 1-1 isn't a bad result.

 

[V.O.]

Two struggling sides who can't score, one awarded a goal by dodgy keeping, the other awarded a goal by the ref. Meh.

 

[Woodenlung]

We crumbled after conceding and Sociedad are probably wondering how they didn't win.

 

[Eric's-collar]

Gives us a chance second leg, shooting ourselves in the foot as usual

 

[paulscholes18]

Are players are brain dead when it comes to defending corners.

 

[ThanksBoss26]

Frustrated but being honest, I'd have taken the draw before the game. Only one team was going to win that in the last 20 minutes.

 

[#07]

Barcelona took this Sociedad team apart at the weekend, in the end they looked liklier to win. Says a lot.

Its rubbish and it continues to be so. We played some half-decent counter attacking stuff when we were 1-0 up. That vanished as soon as Socieded equalised.

It would be miraculous if we won the Europa League.

 

[Todd]

Unlucky to have conceded a stupid penalty. What are you gonna do.

 

[Solius]

As the game went on we looked more vulnerable and less dangerous.
Won't be surprised if they actually beat us at Old Trafford.

Why? They were terrible until the dodgy pen and then the crowd gave them energy. They won’t have that at OT.

 

[King Eric 7]

Another standard game from us. No real surprises. We did OK but can't finish our chances. Then we fell away physically, which is to be expected really.

 

[Florida Man]

Should’ve won that but my we’re so shit

 

[Jev]

Better than I expected. Thought we controlled it and were the better team until the freak penalty.

 

[Parma Dewol]

Waited ages to find a team worse than us. One finally comes along and we still can’t put them away.

 

[DJ_21]

We’re out next week. Normally this would be a good result if we had a good home record but we’re even worse at home

 

[Gazautd18]

Braindead players.
Still....

 

[tomaldinho1]

Yoro and de Ligt did well. As did Casemiro and Bruno (minus the penalty stupidity). Zirkzee deserved his goal and played well.

Everyone else was really meh.

Case made about 10 misplaced passes so get him off that list

 

[100]

Comfortable decent away performance up until the penalty. Shit after it.

Every game we concede at least 1 goal from nothing. It’s almost impressive

 

[stepic]

We were far better than them until their goal.

Handball rule is nonsense

We should do them at OT. In theory.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

I thought we were okay and the penalty was harsh, but it is a penalty. If we had better forwards I think we could have been a lot more comfortable. Our players are wrecked, I would play the kids on Sunday to keep them rested for the second leg.

 

[Insanity]

We are a lethal combination of a bad team with the worst luck in the world. Don't even know what to say anymore. We are cursed.

 

[SuperiorXI]

I only saw the second half but I thought we were decent. They didn't deserve the draw, we should be coming back to OT with a win.

 

[JBG]

We have to invest in new attackers. The ones playing atm are so fecking shit. Either too slow(Zirkzee), not involved enough(Højlund) or just selfish and shit at shooting(Garnacho).

Thought we started decently, but it just turned into what we see every week now, a boring match.

 

[Superunknown]

I thought that was absolutely awful, tbh. When we did create something, we were too weak in front of goal. Too passive. There's no pace to this side and the squad building over the last decade has just been a complete joke. This is the slowest, weakest, more feeble United side that I've seen. We can't beat anyone. This really should have been a comfortable 2-0 or even 3-0 game for us.

 

[Solius]

Some of you have no idea how momentum can be powerful in football. Just completely ignoring context and thinking the team that were utterly toothless for 70 minutes would be able to play like that in the return.
