Manchester United's chances of progressing in the Europa League are in the balance after they threw away the lead to go down 2-1 at FC Midtjylland in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie.
Memphis Depay's close-range finish put United in front in the 37th minute, but Pione Sisto -- capitalising on a Michael Carrick error -- equalised seven minutes later, and a fine strike from Midtjylland substitute Paul Onuachu with 13 minutes to go then handed the Danish champions victory on the night.
Red Devils goalkeeper Sergio Romero produced a series of fine saves after replacing David De Gea, who was forced to pull out of the first XI having sustained an injury in the warm-up, while Jesse Lingard was unlucky not to restore United's lead at 1-1 as his effort hit the bar.
