Antony flying after injury scare
There were concerns over the fitness of Antony during the warm-up, the Manchester United winger jogging down the tunnel in obvious pain with what looked like a problem in his back. Doubts surfaced as to whether the Brazilian would be fit to start, but whatever happened on the treatment table before kick-off worked wonders.
Antony came flying out of the blocks in the opening few minutes, playing through Jadon Sancho who found the net inside 25 seconds, unfortunately being flagged for a tight offside. But the Reds winger kept at it early, bombing past Sevilla left-back Marcos Acuna minutes later.
