Brilliant Bilbao add to United home woe

Manchester United’s miserable European home form continued as they were completely outplayed by Athletic Bilbao in their Europa League last-16 first-leg tie last night.

The Red Devils have now managed just one win in five games at Old Trafford in the Champions League and Europa League this season, including two defeats on the trot after the Basque outfit overturned Wayne Rooney’s first-half strike and then withstood a late United rally that brought the England forward his second goal, from the penalty spot.

Fernando Llorente capped an outstanding performance with the equaliser before Oscar de Marcos put the visitors ahead and Rafael’s woeful defending allowed Iker Muniain to grab a third.
