Real Sociedad, Man Utd Draw As Athletic Bilbao Suffers Late Heartbreak In Europa League

By IANS News March 07, 2025 • 09:30 AM View: 481

Real Sociedad: Real Sociedad and Manchester United drew the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie 1-1 at the Basque side's Reale Arena.

Real Sociedad suffered a setback before kickoff when Spain international Martin Zubimendi was forced to drop out of the squad through illness. His side lacked fluidity in the opening minutes against a rival that was playing five in defense and looking to attack on the break.

Alejandro Garnacho had the first chance in the game as he cut inside for Manchester United, but he shot straight at home goalkeeper Alex Remiro.
