They were shocked as Villa raced into a 2-0 lead. Luke Shaw's deflected effort gave them hope but Villa were 3-1 up by 49th minute. It was then a very straightforward afternoon for the Villains. 🚨 TEAM NEWS! 🚨 Erik makes one change from Thursday's win in Spain, with @MarcusRashford coming in for the suspended @B_Fernandes8 . #MUFC || #AVLMUN — Manchester United (@ManUtd) November 6, 2022 European Super Football (eurosuperfootball.blogspot.com) The best chance of the second half came to Dalot.
