Ruben Amorim said the Manchester United fans who left Old Trafford before their dramatic comeback against Lyon will be “gutted”. United trailed 4-2 in extra time of the Europa League quarter-final when Alexandre Lacazette converted a 109th minute penalty and some supporters decided to head for the exits.

Ruben Amorim used his brief half-time team talk in extra-time to make tactical changes to his Manchester United side as they came from behind to defeat Lyon. United looked to be heading out of the Europa League at the quarter-final stage when they found themselves 3-2 down in extra-time.

Ruben Amorim says he is willing to risk more heavy defeats in the Premier League to keep his Manchester United side fresh for the Europa League after their dramatic quarter-final win against Lyon. United looked dead and buried at Old Trafford after a dramatic turnaround from ten-man Lyon saw the French side 6-4 ahead on aggregate with ten minutes of extra-time remaining.
