Manchester United beat Barcelona 2-1 for a place in the round of 16 of the UEFA Europa League at Old Trafford. In the first instance, the Spanish team would open the scoring after a penalty taken by Lewandowski in the first stage of the match.
However, the tie would come thanks to Fred at the beginning of the second half and after that, Antony would manage to turn the result in his favor with a great goal inside the area.

Barcelona will play this Thursday against Manchester United with four men in midfield, Sergio Busquets, Frenkie De Jong, Sergi Roberto and Franck Kessié, and a striker made up of Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski
Xavi Hernández, the azulgranas coach, tries to alleviate in this way the losses of Pedri and Gavi, due to injury and accumulation of cards, respectively, and of Ousmane Dembelé, who is also suffering from physical problems.
The Spanish coach has finally decided on Raphinha, who had a great game in the first leg, instead of Ferran Torres, who played one of his best games of the season against Cádiz this weekend.
Barcelona will form with Ter Stegen; Koundé, Araujo, Christensen, Balde; Busquets, De Jong, Sergi Roberto, Kessié; Raphinha and Lewandowski. United will come out with the expected: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Martinez, Shaw; Casemiro, Fred, Fernandes; Sancho, Rashford and Weghorst.
