In the early morning of May 9 (Vietnam time), Man United hosted Bilbao in the second leg of the Europa League 2024-2025 semi-finals.
With a 3-0 advantage in the first leg, Man United gained confidence. The away team was forced to raise their formation in a chasing position.
About the first 20 minutes were in a deadlock, but in the 31st minute, Mikel Jauregizar suddenly fired a shot from a distance to defeat Andre Onana, opening the score for Bilbao.
Unfortunately, they could not take advantage of this goal to put pressure on the Red Devils.
In the second half, coach Ruben Amorim sent Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Amad onto the field. Since then, Man United have controlled the ball better.
In the 72nd minute, from a pass from Yoro, Mount turned around and cushioned the ball to equalize for the Old Trafford team. The tension eased after the England midfielder's important goal.
Less than 10 minutes later, Casemiro took the Red Devils up with a delicate touch from Bruno Fernandes' free kick.
Man United was given more confidence and created many storms for the opponent. In the 85th minute, Hojlund put his name on the scoreboard before Mount sealed a 4-1 victory for the home team.
With a total score of 7-1 after two matches, Man United won a ticket to the Europa League final.
In the remaining second leg of the semi-final, Tottenham beat Bodo/Glimt 2-0 in the second leg in Norway (total score 5-1).
This result opened the final with the participation of two English teams for the third time in Europa League history.
The Europa League final between Man United and Tottenham will take place at San Mames, the home stadium of Athletic Club in Basque on May 22.
