Manchester United 1-2 Sevilla LIVE: Europa League semi-final result and latest reaction from Solskjaer

Sevilla vs Manchester United LIVE!

Manchester United's Europa League dreams went up in smoke as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men lost a third semi-final of the season despite dominating large parts of a tense clash with Sevilla.

A promising first full season in the Old Trafford hot-seat ends without silverware for the Norwegian, whose side wasted a glut of chances in Sunday's Stadion Koln showdown and were made to pay for lax defending.

Bruno Fernandes' spot-kick had United dreaming of the August 21 finale, only for former Liverpool man Suso to level and ex-Newcastle striker Luuk de Jong to secure Europa League kings Sevilla a 2-1 comeback win in a pulsating clash.

United's despair was clear at the final whistle and they will be kicking themselves for a long time to come, having let this semi-final go the same way as their FA Cup and Carabao Cup campaigns.
