‘Saamne wali team ke liye khel raha tha ye’ – Harry Maguire’s disasterclass leads to Manchester United’s 3-0 drubbing to Sevilla as they exit Europa League

Manchester United had a terrible night in Spain after Sevilla eliminated them from the Europa League quarterfinal tie. United lost their quarterfinal match 5-2 on the road after getting thrashed 3-0 in Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium, Seville. Sevilla, which eliminated United from both the Champions League and the Europa League in 2018 and 2020, has advanced to the quarterfinals and is competing for their sixth Europa League championship.

After Loic Bade’s header, Youssef En-Nesyri scored twice by taking advantage of terrible errors by Harry Maguire and David de Gea. As a result of being outplayed and outfought by an opponent that is fighting at the bottom of the La Liga standings, Erik Ten Hag’s team, who controlled most of the first leg last week at Old Trafford, only managed three shots on target.

When Martinez and Varane were ruled out with injury, the more miserable United supporters predicted the end of their season, and Maguire will have done nothing to reduce their fears. He made a hilarious blunder by first asking De Gea for the ball and then attempting to flick a first-time pass out wide while seemingly having little awareness of his surroundings. As En-Nesyri rifled his effort into the bottom corner, Maguire was helpless to stop him after the ball touched Erik Lamela.

It will come as a comfort to many United supporters that their club captain is suspended for the match against Brighton at Wembley after spending the majority of the season in the background. Maguire, who is still the most expensive defender in the world, is bereft of any confidence.

At Old Trafford, he appears to have reached a point in his career when it seems quite doubtful that there is a way out. The supporters have lost all faith in him since his management favours other players in his position. In the summer, other teams will be interested in Maguire, so it could be time for him to go on. He could benefit from a change of environment in a club where the spotlight is less intense.

Here’s how fans reacted on Harry Maguire’s performance:
