Manchester United won his qualification in the final of the Europa League this Thursday against Real Sociedad (4-1) in the round of 16, after a draw on the outward journey (1-1). In the next round, the Mancunian club will face Olympique Lyonnais, winner of FC Steaua Bucharest (3-1, 4-0) at the same time.
For the Captain of Red Devils, Bruno Fernandes, and his coach Ruben Amorim, the Gones are not to be underestimated, far from it. The Portuguese technician also considers Lyon training as more athletic than Real Sociedad and expects a complicated confrontation. He also did not fail to greet the work of his Lyon counterpart, Paulo Fonseca.
The impressions of Ruben Amorim
“I think it will be a very different double confrontation because Lyon has more physical qualities than Real Sociedad. They have a very great coach, I like the work of Paulo Fonseca, I know him quite well. It will be a difficult match, but we have to focus on the Premier League now ”estimated the ex-manager of Sporting at the microphone of Canal+.
The Mancunians will go to Groupama Stadium on April 10 for the first leg. And this, before welcoming Lyonnais to Old Trafford a week later, on April 17.
