Match report: Real Sociedad 1 United 1

Manchester United were made to settle for a 1-1 draw from the first leg of our UEFA Europa League last-16 tie away to Real Sociedad, despite a largely dominant display in Spain.

United created plenty of good opportunities at the Reale Arena and were fully deserving of the opener, when Joshua Zirkzee fired us into a 57th-minute lead.

But the Reds were unable to score a second goal that our performance would have deserved, before Mikel Oyarzabal drew our La Liga opponents level from the penalty spot, after the Video Assistant Referee had spotted a handball from Bruno Fernandes inside the 18-yard area.
