#3 Manchester United 1-2 Sevilla
The first leg in Spain had ended as a goalless draw. Coming into this match, United had not lost a European match at home since Cristiano Ronaldo scored the winner in Real Madrid’s 2-1 win in 2013.
A dismal performance saw United concede two goals in the final 16 minutes courtesy of substitute Wissam Ben Yedder. In the space of seven minutes, Yedder scored two quick-fire goals to send United crashing out of the competition.
Yedder's first goal was in the 74th minute when he lost his marker and unleashed an unstoppable shot that went in through De Gea's right post. United then looked to capitalise on their impressive home record in order to eliminate Sevilla from the Champions League knockout stages.
The Red Devils conceded four minutes later due to some shocking defending. Following a corner, an unmarked Joaquin Correa was given acres of space to head the ball across the goal for Yedder to finish. Romelu Lukaku's late strike proved to be nothing more than a consolation.
Mourinho was pretty vocal after the match and painted a clear picture on United's heritage. This did not go down well with many of the club's supporters as outlined in the transcript.
“I say to the fans that the fans are the fans and have the right to their opinions and reactions but there is something that I used to call ‘football heritage’... It is something like the last time Manchester United won the Champions League, which didn’t happen a lot of times, was in 2008.
"Since 2011: 2012, out in the group phase, the group was almost the same group we had this season – Benfica, Basel and [Otelul] Galati from Romania. Out in the group phase. In 2013, out at Old Trafford in the last 16, I was on the other bench. In 2014, out in the quarter-final. In 2015, no European football.
"In 2016, comes back to European football, out in the group phase, goes to Europa League and on the second knockout out of the Europa League. In 2017, play Europa League, win Europa League with me and goes back to Champions League.
"In 2018, win the group phase with 15 points out of a possible 18 and loses at home in the last 16."
