Manchester United fans were quick to laud Casemiro for his impressive showing against Barcelona in the Europa League on Thursday night, with the Brazilian once again delivering a solid performance.
Erik ten Hag's men drew 2-2 with the Catalan outfit at the Camp Nou in the first leg of their play off tie, although it appeared for a brief period of time that the Reds would be returning to Old Trafford with a lead. Former Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso opened the scoring in the 50th minute, but the in-form Marcus Rashford levelled proceedings just two minutes later.
The Reds had their first lead of the clash in the 59th minute thanks to an own goal from Jules Kounde, but ex-Leeds United man Raphinha made it 2-2 in the 76th minute. It was a result that United would probably have taken before kick-off, but Rashford suggested that it felt like a loss, while also questioning a controversial decision from the referee.
