Manchester United star blamed for 2-2 draw against Sevilla. It’s not Harry Maguire
According to Owen Hargreaves and Paul Scholes, the game changed after Tyrell Malacia’s mistake led to Sevilla’s first goal.
“It was an easy ball for Malacia to deal with,” Hargreaves told BT Sport. “Maybe he was wary of it bouncing awkwardly. When he looks back tomorrow he will think why didn’t I just clear it. From then on the game changed.”
Scholes said: “Malacia really should have dealt with that first goal at source and he didn’t. From that point on it was a really difficult night.
“El Nesyri was a handful when he came on, he looked good in the air. Malacia has to deal with that. He cannot afford to let that ball bounce. He has to come and get rid of it.
“He is unaware of the danger behind him. That is where the danger is. It is an easy ball, swing your right foot at it. You cannot let the ball bounce.
“Maybe he thinks it will skid on but from then on things go from bad to worse. There are now injuries and suspensions. Then they get the second goal.”
