Manchester United's season took another embarrassing twist as they fell to a 2-1 defeat by Europa League rivals Fenerbahce.

Two wondergoals by Moussa Sow and then Jeremain Lens saw a helpless David de Gea have to pick the ball out of his net.

Wayne Rooney pulled one back with long-range shot United could not force an equaliser.

To add insult to injury, Paul Pogba could be set for a spell on the sidelines after limping off on the half-hour mark.
