Manchester United squandered a two goal lead at Old Trafford to keep their Europa League quarter-final with Sevilla delicately poised after the first leg.

Jadon Sancho had a goal disallowed after just 27 seconds for an offside before Marcel Sabitzer opened the scoring inside 15 minutes. He swept inside of Marcao and curled a left-footed strike past Bono to find the back of the net.

The Austrian added a second seven minutes later as Anthony Martial picked him out in the box and he fizzed a fine effort into the far corner to give United control in a dominant first half.

The second 45 minutes were a closer affair. Sevilla grew into the game and targeted Tyrell Malacia who struggled all night. Jesus Navas forced an own goal to get the visitors back into the match before an unfortunate Harry Maguire deflected a header from Youssef En-Nesyri past David De Gea to earn the Spaniards a draw.
