Manchester United's pain in Spain: Jose Mourinho faces Celta Vigo in Europa League... but club have only ever won twice in the country (and were thrashed by Romario, Stoichkov, Paulo Futre and the Galacticos)

Manchester United head to Galicia to take on Celta Vigo in the Europa League semi-final on Thursday night having won just twice in Spain in their history.

Jose Mourinho's men will be looking to forge a decisive advantage at Balaidos but past results in Iberia suggest that will be no easy task, even against a side that sitrs 11th in La Liga.

United have won at Valencia in 2010 and Deportivo La Coruna in 2002 for their only victories on Spanish soil. By contrast, the Red Devils have lost and drawn 10 times each while in Spain.
