It's emerged what Jose Mourinho did after Sevilla dumped Manchester United out of the Champions League.

After a goalless draw in Seville, Mourinho led his charges into the second leg with a precarious result considering his side didn't bag an important away goal.

And, last night, United failed to produce a performance worthy of a spot in the quarter-final.

United exited from the competition after Sevilla won 2-1. The introduction of Wissam Ben Yedder was crucial. He entered the fray in the 72nd minute, and turned the tie on it's head by netting a brace.

Following the final whistle, Mourinho, with permission, entered the away dressing room to congratulate the visitors.

Class.

While his gesture to Sevilla went down nicely, his post-match thoughts didn't.

"I've sat in this chair twice before with Porto, Manchester United out, and Real Madrid, Manchester United out, so I don't think it's anything new for the club," he said about United's defeat in the last 16.

Then weighing in on Spurs' and Liverpool's season.

"A fantastic team like Tottenham has to do exactly the same as us.

"Liverpool has the Champions League but doesn't have the FA Cup. That's football, that's life. We lost and tomorrow is another day and Saturday is another match.

"Every player is sad and they don't hide that sadness. That is something that pleases me because I feel exactly the same but we have no time for dramas because on Saturday we have to work as we have an important match," the Portuguese boss added.

United are back in action this weekend when they host Brighton in the FA Cup quarter-final.
