Manchester United came from behind to beat Real Sociedad 4-1 at Old Trafford and 5-2 on aggregate with a hattrick from Bruno Fernandes’ and Diogo Dalot’s late goal.
Manchester United’s season is now alive with that win over Real Sociedad to progress to the Europa League quarter-finals 5-2 on aggregate.
Mikel Oyarzabal’s early penalty gave Old Trafford a scare but two spot-kicks from Bruno Fernandes, one in each half, turned the tie around and La Real had no response once substitute Jon Aramburu was sent off for a foul on the impressive Patrick Dorgu.
Fernandes completed his hat-trick to put the tie beyond their Basque opponents before Diogo Dalot made it four on the night and 5-2 on aggregate in stoppage-time. Ruben Amorim’s side will now face Lyon in the last eight with the prospect of European silverware moving closer.
