The strikers of Athletic Clubs Nico and Inaki Williams both insisted that they are able to beat Manchester United out of the Europa League, even though they closed the Premier League outfit with three goals in the semi-finals on Thursday on Thursday.
Since August, the Basque Giants had lost a game before their loud support before giving up in San Mames last week. Inaki Williams steered over the crossbar before United took control.
Casemiro fired the visitors in front of the half -hour brand, while a dispute from Dani Vivian emphasized the tie in favor of United. The sporty central defender was punished with Alejandro Garnacho for confusion, a punishment and a red card was collected. Bruno Fernandes converted the spot kick and added a third party before the half-time interval.
“We were not very sharp, there is no need to make excuses,” admitted Nico Williams, but he did not give up hope. “We are 3-0 below, but we are able to overcome this. We have already seen that Lyon has given you problems at home and we will try to do the same. The work of the entire season speaks for itself. We are in the last route of our dream. Our fans have always supported ourselves and we will give everything.”
United kicked 4-2 at home to Lyon during her quarter -final of the Europa League before scored three goals in the last six minutes.
Inaki repeated the feeling of his younger brother. “We are able to come back,” emphasized the striker. Williams also pointed out the talisive referee decisions that could against athletics during the night.
“There are some pieces that increase doubts,” he vanished. “The piece in front of the penalty comes from a handball from Garnacho, which the referee does not see. It is a fight between Vivian and him. In the slightest contact, he goes down and it is unfortunate that he calls it.”
United prepared for the decisive tie on Thursday by increasing her 16th Premier League defeat of the season against Brentford. Ruben Amorim’s team was in poor domestic form in the Europa League this season and has won its last five European relationships in Old Trafford.
