Manchester United, England's football titan, storms into the Europa League quarter-finals through grit and determination! Against Real Sociedad San Sebastian, the Red Devils face an early deficit but rally with three goals by Bruno Fernandes, including two powerful penalties, and a stellar performance. Tottenham Hotspur also achieves victory.
Despite a 1:1 draw in the first leg, Manchester United reclaims the upper hand at home, with Fernandes notching up his hat-trick at minutes 16, 50, and 87. The Spanish European champions Mikel Oyarzabal score the initial goal from a penalty (10). However, the struggling English side retaliates, spurred on by Fernandes, and secures the victory with a final goal by Diogo Dalot in the last minute of regular time. Substitute Jon Aranburu from San Sebastián sees red just seven minutes after entering the match (63).
