Juventus savagely mocked Manchester United on social media after Erik ten Hag’s men crashed out of the Europa League at the hands of Sevilla on Thursday evening.
Sevilla punched their ticket to the semi-finals with a crushing 3-0 win over United in the second-leg quarter-final clash at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan in Spain.
United, who bottled a 2-0 lead in the first-leg tie at Old Trafford, were behind 10 minutes into the second-leg match after a howler from Harry Maguire.

Loic Bade increased Sevilla’s advantage only minutes into the second half after his looping header from an Ivan Rakitic corner beat a helpless David de Gea.
De Gea was at fault for Sevilla’s third after he charged out of his box and his sloppy clearance allowed En-Nesyri to slot the ball into the empty United net from 35 yards out.
Sevilla’s opponent for the Europa League semi-finals will be none other than Juventus, who dumped Sporting CP out of the quarter-finals on Thursday.

Juventus wasted no time in hilariously trolling United on TikTok after posting a parody clip from 2010’s Four Lions.
The clip features the club crests of Juventus, Sevilla and Bayer Leverkusen -- all Europa League semi-finals -- celebrating while United watch on as Four Lions character Barry.
Speaking after their defeat to Sevilla, Christian Eriksen insisted that United must change their “mentality” ahead of the FA Cup semi-final clash against Brighton on Sunday.

“A lot of things happened,” he told BT Sport.
“We didn’t really give them a game from the first minute and we gave them a lot of opportunities to finish us off.
“We lost a bit of our coolness, we made more mistakes than we do usually and the whole team could not catch up with mistakes our teammates made.
“If you give away goals like we did, you lose, it’s nothing to do with the atmosphere.

“Our own game was not strong enough. It’s football, sometimes you have good days, sometimes you have bad days and it was a bad day. Luckily, we have a game in four days.
“Every football player makes mistakes, they punished us straight away. It’s how we bounce back and today we were not strong enough to bounce back from the mistakes.
“The mentality has to change, we know it will be a completely different opponent and different style so from tomorrow we will be focusing on Brighton.”
