Man utd verdict offered on embarrassing spurs europa league goal – 'he is wrong'

MANCHESTER UNITED FOUND THEMSELVES A GOAL DOWN AGAINST TOTTENHAM IN THE EUROPA LEAGUE FINAL AND ALLY MCCOIST HIGHLIGHTED THE THREE PLAYERS HE BELIEVED WERE ALL AT FAULT 21:51, 21 May 2025

Ex-Rangers ace Ally McCoist laid into Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw and Andre Onana after Tottenham nicked a truly bizarre opener against Manchester United in the Europa League final. The first

half in Bilbao was a tight affair with both United and Spurs struggling to carve out clear-cut opportunities. But just before the half-time whistle, Ange Postecoglou's lads took the

lead in a moment that would've surely rattled the Red Devils' locker room. A whipped-in cross from the left seemed to bamboozle Maguire and land for Johnson, who nipped ahead of

Shaw and watched as the ball eventually found its way into calamity keeper Onana's net. McCoist reckons the United trio might have dropped the ball on that one, after a controversial

team selection by manager Ruben Amorim. "It might have been a little bit scrappy," the TNT Sports commentator remarked post-goal, reports the Manchester Evening News. "There

is the delivery, he (Brennan Johnson) gets in behind and I think Maguire thinks the goalkeeper is coming but he doesn't. Article continues below "He doesn't think anyone is

behind him but unfortunately for him he is wrong. Well it is scrappy isn't it, I think Shaw might even play it off him." "It comes off Shaw there, does Johnson get a touch?

Doesn't really matter does it?" During the half-time analysis, TNT Sport pundit Rio Ferdinand also chimed in, suggesting Patrick Dorgu could've stepped up his game for the

goal. Article continues below He argued that the defender should've given Shaw a heads-up about Johnson sneaking in for the cross. Regardless, the final is now firmly in Spurs'

grasp and United will need to pull out all the stops to claw their way back. And the victor will secure a spot in next season's Champions League, worth up to £100m to boost their club

coffers.
