The UEFA Europa League Quarterfinals 2nd Leg has just come to an end and it has seen Manchester United and Sporting CP kicked off the league as Sevilla and Juve emerge victorious. Even more, Leverkusen have also managed to proceed to the semi-finals, as have Roma who’ve edged out Feyenoord 4-1. Here are the UEFA Europa League Quarterfinals Results.
Sevilla Kick Manchester United Off the Europa League
Sevilla pulled off the seemingly impossible after they kicked Manchester United off the Europa League with a 3-0 win. Sevilla were put ahead by Youssef El-Nesyri who scored the opener in the 8th minute, Loid Bade followed with Sevilla’s second in the 47th minute, and El-Nesyri made it a brace with his second in the 81st minute. Sevilla played phenomenally well and will proceed to the Europa League Semi-Finals with a 5-2 aggregate lead.

A Shockingly Sloppy Man United
Manchester United played so poorly yesterday night that we think they may even be relegated after a few seasons in the English Premier League if they continue with such sloppy and poor performances.
Even goalkeeper David De Gea was sloppy tonight, as the first Sevilla goal was scored after he passed the ball to Harry Maguire with three Sevilla forwards close by. Again, Harry Maguire has been a huge part of what is wrong with Man Utd and we can’t understand why the technical bench keeps letting him play. Maguire should be transferred out of Man Utd or benched to smithereens.

Juventus Qualify for the Europa League Semi-finals after Beating Sporting CP on Aggregate
Juventus managed to qualify for the Europa League Semi-finals after defeating Sporting CP 2-1 on aggregate, despite both teams drawing 2-2 in the 2nd leg of the Europa League Quarterfinals. Juventus were put ahead by an Adrien Rabiot goal in the 9th minute with Sporting Lisbon’s Marcus Edwards converting a penalty in the 20th minute.
The game ended in a deadlock but Juventus were lucky to have already been 1-0 ahead on aggregate, securing their 2-1 aggregate win and consequent qualification to the Semi-finals. Both teams played very well with Juve standing out in both legs.
Leverkusen Kick Union Saint-Gilloise Off the Europa League
Leverkusen went on to kick Union Saint-Gilloise off the Europa League and secure a spot in the semifinals, after beating them 4-1. Leverkusen were put ahead by Moussa Diaby in the 2nd minute, followed by Mitchel Bakker who made it 2 in the 37th minute. Jeremie Frimpong made it three in the 60th minute and Adam Hlozek capped the lead with the fourth in the 79th minute.
Union Saint-Gilloise only managed a single-goal reply in the 64th minute thanks to Casper Terho. Leverkusen now proceed to the Europa League Semi-finals with a 5-2 aggregate lead, in what has been a stellar performance for them this season.
AS Roma Kick Feyenoord Off the Europa League and Qualify for the Semi-Finals

Leonardo Spinazzola put Roma ahead with the opener in the 60th minute, followed by Paulo Dybala who made it two in the 89th minute. Igor Paixao scored Feyenoord’s only goal in the 80th minute.
Roma Extra Time Strikes Break 2-2 Aggregate Deadlock
Feyenoord went into the game with a 1-0 aggregate lead and at the end of the 90 minutes, both teams were 2-2 on aggregate. Stephan El Shaarawy then went on to make it three for Roma in the 101st minute with Lorenzo Pellegrini scoring their fourth goal in the 109th minute.
As such, with the additional two goals for Roma in extra time, Roma beat Feyenoord 4-1 during the game and 4-2 on aggregate. Roma will proceed to the Europa League Semi-finals and put on a wonderful performance to get there. Tammy Abraham also assisted a goal and manager Jose Mourinho was more than thrilled with the hard-fought win.
What a night!
