da brdice: Manchester United fell to a shambolic 3-0 loss against an utterly dominant Sevilla side to exit the Europa League on Thursday
da bet sport: Manchester United's exciting Europa League campaign ended in horror and shame after one of the worst performances of the season, brimming with inexplicable errors, miscommunication and frustration.
David de Gea contributed to all three conceded goals while Harry Maguire had another embarrassing performance, giving the ball away to assist Sevilla's opener after he scored an own goal in last week's 2-2 draw.
After leading last week's first leg 2-0 at half-time, it was unthinkable that United could end up losing this tie, let alone by a 5-2 aggregate scoreline. And yet that's exactly what happened as the hope of European silverware in Erik ten Hag's first season in charge fell apart.
GOAL rates Manchester United players from an ecstatic Estadio Sanchez Pizjuan.
Getty ImagesGoalkeeper & Defence
David de Gea (1/10):
Did Maguire no favours by passing to him under pressure in the moments before Sevilla's opener and was badly at fault for the second goal which came off Bade's shoulder and looped over his head in part because of a mistimed jump. He saved his worst moment for last, though, sending the ball straight to Youssef En-Nesyri who stroked a shot into an empty net. One of his worst-ever displays in 12 years at the club.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka (5/10):
Not United's worst defender but made a few late challenges.
Harry Maguire (3/10):
Showed no awareness for the first goal and looked shaky throughout, just as he did against Nottingham Forest.
Victor Lindelof (6/10):
The only defender that played with any confidence or conviction.
Diogo Dalot (5/10):
Created almost no danger going forward.

Christian Eriksen (5/10):
Lost the ball on several occasions and could not handle Sevilla's intensity.
Casemiro (5/10):
Outmuscled more than once and also gave the ball away in dangerous areas, including for the goal Sevilla had disallowed for offside.
Marcel Sabitzer (5/10):
Kept making fouls and barely threatened in attack.

Antony (6/10):
One of very few to play with any passion or purpose but still could not do anything tangible.
Antony Martial (5/10):
Played deep and created no danger before being forced off injured early in the second half.
Jadon Sancho (5/10):
Again seemed afraid of making any bold moves and was lethargic defensively. Hauled off at half-time.
Getty ImagesSubs & Manager
Marcus Rashford (6/10):
Created some semblance of danger when he came on but failed to trouble Bono.
Luke Shaw (5/10):
Could not stop the rot although it was not his fault.
Wout Weghorst (5/10):
Showed some effort but as usual created no danger, which is not what you want from your centre-forward.
Fred (5/10):
Did little to suggest he should be back in the starting line-up any time soon.
Anthony Elanga (N/A):
Came on in the 87th minute but did at least manage a shot.
Erik ten Hag (5/10):
His hands were tied due to the absences of key players like Fernandes, Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane but he must take some blame for this shocking performance.
