Europa League at Villarreal, ManUtd ko on penalties

by admin

GDANSK (POLAND) (ITALPRESS) – It is Villarreal to raise the Europa League trophy to the sky. In an unspectacular final but balanced for over 120 minutes, Manchester United fell on penalties in Gdansk after De Gea’s mistake in an interminable series of penalties. Predictions of the eve turned upside down, with the first triumph in a great competition of the Spaniards. Still, United seemed to be able to take command of operations. Villarreal struggles to restart but concedes little even from the parts of Rulli. Greenwood tries to unhinge the attentive Spanish rearguard with an illuminating launch, but Cavani misses the control and a few minutes later he is still the protagonist in the negative. An avoidable foul in his own half gives the Yellow Submarine the advantage, with Parejo’s masterful free-kick for the split touch of the usual Gerard Moreno who beats De Gea at the near post on 29 ‘. Villarreal therefore density in the trocar and dries up the game sources of the Red Devils: the only real thrill of the first fraction is caused by Albiol, who deviates from the thigh on Greenwood’s cross but finds Rulli ready to embrace the ball and avoid the risk own goal. The pace takes off in the second half: Bacca chews the ball of the potential 2-0, while on the other side he does not forgive Cavani. The ‘Matador’ bags free in the 55th minute after a pinball machine and rejoices after a long check for the possible offside position. United finds momentum, Emery covers himself by replacing Bacca with Coquelin and the match drags on until 90 ‘without particular jolts. The first change of Solskjaer (Fred for Greenwood) comes in the middle of the first extra time, in the rain of Gdansk the two teams accuse the dross of an interminable season and meet in the penalty lottery: after twenty perfect penalties are the two goalkeepers to decide the challenge. Rulli scores, De Gea no and the Villarreal party can start with Emery who enters history, winning the fourth Europa League of his career (three with Sevilla).
