Kobbie Mainoo nets as Man United reach Europa League knockouts

Manchester United cruised through to the Europa League knockout stages after goals from Diogo Dalot and Kobbie Mainoo earned the Premier League side a 2-0 victory over Steaua Bucharest on Thursday.

Coming into their trip to Romania, United knew victory would guarantee them a top-eight finish in the league phase of the new-look Europa League, but the visitors struggled to create any openings of note in a poor first half.

The introduction of substitutes Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo livened up Ruben Amorim's side in the second half, with Dalot tapping United in front on the hour mark.
