Although Oyarzabal's early goal in the 10th minute from the 11m mark gave Real Sociedad an advantage, MU players quickly turned the tables spectacularly.

Bruno Fernandes once again played the hero role when he scored 2 goals from the 11m mark in the 16th and 50th minutes to help MU regain the lead to 2-1. At the end of the match, taking advantage of the extra man (Aramburu of Real Sociedad received a red card in the 63rd minute), Bruno Fernandes completed his hat-trick with a goal to make it 3-1 in the 87th minute. In the extra minute, defender Dalot sealed a 4-1 victory for MU (the final score was 5-2).

This satisfactory result puts MU into the Europa League quarter-finals against Lyon. Coach Amorim's team continues to have the advantage when playing the second leg of the quarter-finals at home. If they continue to the semi-finals, they will meet the winner of the Rangers and Athletic Bilbao match.

According to coach Amorim: "Europa League is MU's last chance this season. Winning this tournament means you will have a place in the Champions League. However, we cannot dream, but must rely on our own strength. MU is going through a time of many changes. But we never back down."

Meanwhile, Bruno Fernandes said: "Winning is everything for this club. We need to win games. We have a long way to go but we are confident, with the right mentality, we can win games."

Tottenham will meet Eintracht Frankfurt in the quarter-finals, if they continue to the semi-finals they will meet Bodo/Glimt or Lazio .

The possibility of MU and Tottenham reaching the Europa League final is increasing. The first leg of the quarter-finals will take place on April 10 and the second leg on April 17. In the Conference League round of 16, Chelsea also easily advanced when they beat FC Copenhagen 3-1 on aggregate to face Legia Warsaw in the quarter-finals.
