Premier League giants Man Utd made a disappointing start to their Europa League campaign with a shock 1-0 defeat to Feyenoord at Rotterdam, as new manager Jose Mourinho suffered his second consecutive defeat.
Man Utd looked out of shape right from the kick-off and they clearly lacked the intent to take an early lead. On the contrary Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s Dutch side basked in confidence and pushed more men forward.
Feyenoord crushed Man Utd’s hopes after taking a one goal lead in the 80th minute. Jorgensen, who was offside, whipped in a cross to pick Vilhena in the area, who launched a low side-footed finish from the edge of the penalty box to beat De Gea.
The Second consecutive defeat didn’t go down well with the football enthusiasts and let’s see how they reacted on social media.

Paul Pogba spelled backwards is ‘abgop luap” which makes no sense just like the €120m Manchester United spent on him.”

Mourinho the tactical genius throwing Chris Smalling up front. Long ball tactics ?

Not sure what I’m more surprised about, Brad Jones playing for Feyenoord or him being 34.

Thought he looked offside when the ball was played through but United have invited this. Woeful performance from front to back.

4 – For the first time ever, Man Utd have lost four successive European away games in a row. Unaccustomed.
