Bruno Fernandes’s handball turned out to be crucial when Manchester United was withdrawn to pull the first stage of her Europa League Last-16 in Spain.
Amorim’s side was greatly improved for great spells and almost opened the rating when Fernandes’ shot on the line was excellently blocked.
Alejandro Garnacho placed well and took United a deserved lead when Joshua Zirkzeese’s long -term shot Alex Remiro was a false goalkeeper Alex Remiro.

But United could not hold the victory when Fernand had blocked a header with his hand from a corner.
Referee Ivan Kruzliak gave the decision after a video check, and captain Mikel Oyarzabal stroked the spot kick home.
The pages will meet again in Old Trafford next week.
United was at the top in the first half and went ahead when Zirkzee scored a first shot from the edge of the box by Benat Turrents’ legs and former goalkeeper Remiro.
We are pulled in San Sebastian, but it is everything you can play in the second leg. 👊#Murnc || #Uel

The travel agencies enjoyed a destination on which they wanted to build when Garnacho shot far from the post.
But life is rarely uncomplicated for United, who flashed a 25-yarder closure, before the referee Kruzliak received instructions through his earphones.
The Var instructed the referee to go to the monitor and check a Fernandes handball when he tried to clear a corner.
Kruzliak pointed to the spot and the real arena roared when Oyarzabal-Spania’s match winner against England in the final of the Euro 2024-Sine punishment was up to Andre Onana.
Matthijs de Ligt did an excellent job to deal with a cross after an initial slip and Onana stopped a shot in injury time when the entire square ended in Spain.
