Bruno Fernandes has been criticised for his "totally unnecessary" dig at his Manchester United teammate Alejandro Garnacho after the 1-0 win away at Real Sociedad.
The Red Devils needed to win the game by two goals to ensure they leapfrogged the Spanish outfit into top spot in their Europa League group. The side that finishes first avoids playing in a round of 32 two-legged contest in Februrary next year and therefore stakes were high.
United's failure to get the second goal means they could face a number of European giants, as clubs who finished third in their respective Champions League groups now enter the fold. Erik ten Hag could be overseeing an Ajax reunion as the Dutch champions drop down into the competition, or could be forced to pit his wits against Xavi's Barcelona.
