I guess after Arsenal lost to Sporting we can put Man U among the favourites... Although maybe Sporting will make it to the final match too... Juventus are unlikely to qualify for the final, especially their next games against Sporting... Roma could also prove to be a dark horse, but unfortunately they don't have a consistent game...
I also think like you MU's chances in the Europa League are getting bigger to win, without undermining the ability of Juventus, Rome and even Sevilla, the kings of the Europa League, but Arsenal and Barcelona, the two teams ranked 1st in their respective leagues are out. I see that Man United is now more organized and trying to be more compact in communication between the defense and midfield, even though now it's just lacking in finishing issues.

I believe Arsenal was the most important team to win the title in the current season the Europa league but since they lost the game against Sporting the last night, I think currently Manchester United is the first hope for the Europa League, while even for Manchester United we can't be sure and there is a possibility to saw the same thing happened for Arsenal can happen for them this time against Sevilla.
I saw Arsenal's mistake in not appearing with the full squad in that match. round 1 the conditions were losing 1-0 and the crusader came out. If Partey had entered early in round 2, Arsenal's game would not have been so chaotic. Very different from Man United even though they had a big lead in leg 1, but when Man United played almost a full core squad in Leg 2, ETH valued every opportunity to get a trophy.

Manchester United's match is ahead. Manchester United has had one of the best performances in the league, but the team has played poorly in some matches. But the next match is expected to ensure victory for Manchester United. Because the opposition is far behind.
The problem here might be that after they qualify in this phase because looking at the pot now, Manchester United are in the same line as Sporting Juventus which of course this will be an interesting treat later, especially if there is a Juventus vs Manchester United match in the semi-finals.
for the group on the right I don't see anything exciting there.

Your words come true now Cheesy
Arsenal failed to do their job in the Europa League after being eliminated via a penalty shootout.
To be honest this has been a very exciting game because both teams are trying very hard in this game but of course there are winners and losers and in this case Arsenal have to be willing to drop out of the competition and now the focus will be on the Premier League after this.
Finally Arsenal is out from the league,with a PK. I see sporting winning as a luck because both side played very well and they are equal to each other in their performance. PK is a game of luck which sporting became lucky this night to kick the gunners out of the league and they have secured a ticket to the next round. Arsenal should go and focus more on EPL,since that is the league that they can win this season if they don't relent in their performance because they have a rival. I think this might be an opportunity for Man united to get to the finals,since they are stronger and some of the qualified clubs.
The focus is clear now on Arsenal because they have lost their chance in the Europa League but back to the initial topic of the Europa League actually I see now for the final draw I think this is not balanced because looking at the current conditions by looking at the pot this is a little lame to the right and left especially looking from the condition of the left team everything is almost the favorite club in this competition.

Anybody know who was handed the man of the match in the Arsenal match? Am hoping it was given to Antonio Adan.. the the Sporting goalkeeper who kept Arsenal from proceeding to the next round..what a game  Cool
I agree with this because indeed, seeing from his performance in this match, Adan really deserves to be used as MOTM in this match. Not only was he about to save Gabriel Martineli's shot he also made some excellent saves throughout normal and extra team time although Pote's strike for the equalizer was absolutely spectacular.

Arsenal against Porto is definitely worth watching
I believe you mean Sporting, Port was knocked out by Inter Milan.
Arsenal against Porto is definitely worth watching although admittedly they must now accept the fact that they have to be knocked out in the last 16 now.
You mean Sporting and not Porto Wink
Thanks mate for correcting my mistake Smiley yep I mean Sporting because Porto plays in a different competition.

Penalties are clearly a matter of mentality and in this match Gabriel Martineli failed to carry out his role which knocked Arsenal out.
I don't blame a team losing with penalties since there is a huge hazardous part but I blame Arsenal not being apt to kick Sporting since the 1st leg, or even before playing penalties in the second leg..
No one can really be blamed in this matter because of course we know that conditions like that are obviously very difficult.
Martineli also, apart from his mistakes, he failed to kick a penalty, in fact his performance during the match was quite good and he also couldn't have wanted to miss it, it was just that bad luck befell him when he was trusted as the kicker.

It was a really magical night for Sporting. I never expected Sporting to eliminate Arsenal and most people must have thought the same as me. Arsenal were really dominant until a point in regular time. But Pedro Goncalves scored an incredible chip goal which pushed Sporting to play more fearlessly later on. This goal is definitely one of the bests in this season to tell the truth. In extra time Arsenal wasted huge chances to finish the job maybe. Especially Trossard's shot hit the post which was like the turning point of the match for Arsenal.

Martinelli's missing that penalty cost Arsenal too much. But I can't blame only him for this result. They should have been able to finish this in regular time. Their performance was much worse than the first leg unfortunately.

The two strongest teams I've seen in the Europa League have matched. It was interesting that Manchester United and Sevilla drew each other so early. Other teams have been happy about it. I think both teams had a very good chance for the trophy, but unfortunately, one of them will say goodbye to the trophy in the quarter-finals. I think the team that passes this round will play the final.
Indeed, the match between Manchester United vs Sevilla must take place earlier than we thought, I thought it would see the two teams at least make it to the semifinals, but indeed this is a very exciting match to watch. Sevilla is the winner of the most European league titles with 6 trophies and for Manchester United they have won this trophy only once in 2017. I think this will be a challenge for Manchester United because if they manage to get rid of Sevilla, definitely their chance to win the European league this season it will get bigger.

Every match in the current league is going great. Because every team is playing their best. Now each team has the ability to defeat the other. Because the teams are getting stronger day by day. Because every team authority is now trying hard to move the team forward.

Arsenal's steps must be stopped by Sporting for drawing at home and away and surprisingly Arsenal's appearance beyond expectations. The only British representative remaining is Man United and they will face Sevilla who really dominates the European League, Erik Ten Hak have the opportunity to bring Man United to reach the final, if they are able to overcome Sevilla in the next match. Juventus and Rome are also one of the clubs that have the opportunity to qualify for the final, but as you said their consistency is very doubtful.

The only club that has been consistent so far is Man United, even though they were surprisingly beaten 7-0 by Liverpool in the Premier League, but when viewed from consistency, Man United's chances are quite big. For me, the most ideal final this season in the European league is between Man United vs Juventus.

If you talk about the match for the next round, it's not in sight because the time is still a bit long. However, Manchester United at this time will still be facing the next round with great enthusiasm because they were able to do better in the previous round in the Europa League. And the elimination of Arsenal yesterday has made Manchester United a little relieved because the strong team has begun to decrease now in the European League.

Arteta was the error in his team selection. Immediately, I saw the lineup, I said they were out of the tournament. I don't blame any of the players but rather Arteta you can't underestimate a team twice. Some people had already qualified but still brought in their winning eleven and Arteta decided to bench theirs, what shall he say when they lose the premier league? Let’s hope it's not a slippery slope as we have seen before, they must keep focused.

I will not blame Arteta in this case, as a coach he should make a change with the current situation of his team. He decided to rest some of his best players (it does not mean he underestimates Sporting) but maybe because he has made the decision to be focused more on Premier League where his team lead 5 points only to the closest competitor. It is hard decision but it is reasonable enough if Arteta want to win Premier League more than Europa League. I hope it will work like what he expects, now they can focus on EPL as they have just failed in Europa League.
He underestimated Sporting in the first leg, played out a 2-2 draw with them. Underestimated them again at home. Arteta should stop underrating competitions and teams. Arteta takes all the blame. He bottled it big time, he should know better that they gave them a glimpse of what they were capable of doing in the previous fixture but he ignored the fact and experimenting with his chances.

Juventus and Sporting draw will also be very exciting. Arsenal could've been here but Sporting won on penalties. They are one of the strongest teams in Portugal and they deserved to be here. I wouldn't be surprised if they can also knock out Juventus.
I wonder what Bayer Leverkusen will do. Union SG is seen as a small team but the game they played was fine.
After facing Real Sociedad in the group phase, stepped over Barcelona's obstacles in the play-offs, and alleviating Real Betis in the last 16, Manchester United again won the Spanish team as their opponent, Sevilla, who was the holder of the record for the most UEL champions with four trophies. In head-to-head, the Red Devils have never won against Sevilla, that must certainly be a serious concern of Ten Hag. But if you look at Sevilla's performance in La Liga, then MU can be a little able to breathe freely, because until now Los Nervionenses are still stumbling at the bottom of the standings.

I believe Manchester United will qualify for the semifinals, because in addition to their good performance, United this season has also been tested when he was able to defeat the Spanish team.

Juventus versus Sporting Lisbon is another match that is quite interesting for us to see. I think the strength of these two teams is quite balanced and I can predict that their battles will be very tight until the 2nd leg. Front, because the opportunity through the Serie A pathway is quite heavy for Juventus.

The quarter-final draw has been confirmed after the UEFA European League Round of 16 has been completed. We have seen which of the teams that have been confirmed for the quarter-finals from the round of 16 will prepare to play in the next semi-final. (Bayer 04 Leverkusen Vs Union Saint-Gilloise, Roma Vs Feyenoord, Juventus Vs Sporting CP, Sevilla Vs Manchester United.)
The drawn matches for this quarter final will be held on April 13 and April 20.


Two teams who played in UCL before is facing in the last 8 of europa league which is really good. Sporting can't be underestimate after it was able to beat arsenal. Mu will be facing sevilla. I thought that if sevilla will not become a tough opponent for MU.

Feyenord gonna be an easy opponent for roma. Roma was doing so well in the last 16. Will jose mourinho bring roma to win europa league?

Leverkusen faces a difficult team. I never heard leverkusen faced union SG before. It seems to be a pretty difficult match for leverkusen.
Manchester United's match is ahead. Manchester United has had one of the best performances in the league, but the team has played poorly in some matches. But the next match is expected to ensure victory for Manchester United. Because the opposition is far behind.

I've always had a bit of confidence in Arsenal because I was playing at home but after Xhaka scored a goal the goals actually didn't add up anymore and what was even better was that Sporting CP were able to do their bidding so the game became intense in the first half.

It was in the second half that a spectacular goal was scored by Pedro Goncalves. I didn't expect this to happen because the Arsenal goalkeeper was still in the penalty area, so the shot went perfectly into Arsenal's goal and became a long-range goal.

After that, Sporting CP was even more motivated, they had many chances, but in the end they failed, so the match went into extra round and ended in a penalty shootout.

Unlucky fate Martinelli's shot was able to be pushed aside by the Sporting CP goalkeeper while the Sporting CP players carried out the penalty task perfectly and this was clearly a dramatic victory and Arsenal had to be silent at home.
I think everyone was surprised that the ball went in, that ball would have to go exactly where it went in order to be a goal, you do not usually see that many goals from that far away in football, it sometimes happens but rarely we see it at this stage, usually that happens against a lot worse teams, not against teams like Arsenal to be fair, goalkeeper must be feeling terrible about the goal but there is nothing to be ashamed of, that goal was one in a million, even Pedro himself can shoot 10 more times from the same place and would probably miss all of them, so that was just a lucky situation.

However it is definitely sad to see such a good team gone from the tourney, that's true.

The match between Arsenal and Sporting was very competitive. But I couldn't believe Arsenal would lose like that. I expected Arsenal to seal victory during the game but it didn't happen. Sporting brilliantly leveled the game and took it to penalties. In the end, Sporting secured victory on penalties. This defeat is very embarrassing for Arsenal.
Believe it or not, that's the reality that Arsenal is already feeling now so that it makes Arsenal and their fans feel very sick because they have to lose on penalties. This is why each team should not be underestimated because anyone can make unexpected surprises in a match and I have to congratulate Sporting CP for being able to beat Arsenal to go to the next round. Now is the time for Arsenal to stay focused on the Premier League this season.
Could it be the target of winning the Premier league is what made arsenal not to be strong enough to defeat sporting cp. I didn't expect the out of arsenal and sporting cp will end up like this. Arsenal started the Europa League this season with a good performance but they couldn't keep it on. Now arsenal are no more participating in the Europa League let's watch out if they can still maintain to be consistent in Premier league because their is much work to be done concerning their point..

Sporting CP is one of the best team in the Primeira Liga, they deserve a chance to advance to the next round in the UEL
Now Arsenal can return to focus on the EPL, they must not miss the chance to win the Premier League this season. Arsenal's failure in the Europa League this season will soon be reward because they have confirmed a ticket to the UCL next season
Sporting CP performs better compared with arsenal. That's why sporting deserves to be qualified for the last 8 unlike arsenal which was underperforming. I don't know what's wrong with arsenal but it seems like that arteta was the main problem that makes arsenal lose in europa league.

"Tomiyasu looks pretty serious from his reaction straight away and what he said to me, but it's very early and very difficult to know.

The defeat by sporting lisbon was giving more disadvantages to the arsenal started from some important players who potentially injured during the match against sporting. Even when arsenal was playing with gabriel jesus was not even enough to beat sporting.

Sporting was really strong and under rated team at this moment. People were feeling so confidence to bet on arsenal compared with sporting.
Tomiyasu and saliba may not play against crystal palace as the continuation of EPL
