Man Utd Loses In Denmark As Pressure Mounts On Van Gaal

There is nothing convincing about Manchester United anymore, whether they are playing at home or abroad, as Louis van Gaal’s reputation took another battering in Denmark.

Manchester United produced another underwhelming display as they lost to Danish side FC Midtjylland in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie.

United were without a number of injured players, including Wayne Rooney, and lost David de Gea in the warm-up.

They took the lead through Memphis Depay’s shot but Sergio Romero, who stepped in for De Gea, was unable to prevent Pione Sisto equalising.

United’s Jesse Lingard hit the bar before Paul Onuachu struck the winner.

United may still progress in the Europa League. They scored a vital away goal and the margin of the defeat means they still have an excellent chance of progressing to the last 16.

After losing to Sunderland 2-1 on Saturday, the Red Devils are six points shy of the top four in the Premier League, leaving qualification for next season’s Champions League very much in the balance.
