Dealing with pressure
You could say Manchester United walked out into a red hot cauldron at the Ramon Sanchez-Pijuan, but white was the colour of choice for the Rojiblancos. Conscious that the 3,000 travelling fans would be clad in red, Sevilla made a plea for their supporters to wear white. The message got through.
United might have been dressed in red, but they waved the white handkerchief in Seville. This was a pitiful collapse, both on the night and in a tie they had total control of. From 2-0 up they conceded five goals across 93 minutes of this tie. The compilation of those goals would work well with the Benny Hill theme tune.
