Manchester United failed to qualify for the semifinals due to their own actions. You can see how the mistakes made by their coach in leg 1. Erik Ten Hag failed to maintain the advantage and made the mistake of rotating players at the wrong time so that the rhythm of the game was chaotic and finally Sevilla was able to take advantage of the situation and managed to equalize at 2- 2. In the 2nd leg, Erik Ten Hag was again confused by the number of injured players, so he resigned himself to being defeated by Sevilla again. But what is clear is that MU's failure to qualify for the semifinals was purely due to his own mistakes.

I don’t agree that in the first match it was Ten Hag’s fault that the team missed the victory at the end of the match, it was some kind of ridiculous accident, but it doesn’t change the essence, they lost what seemed to be a guaranteed victory, maybe they checked into it too early. And in the second match, Sevilla was hard to stop, they were in their stadium and their fans gave them a lot of strength. The defeat of Manchester United was unexpected, but such is the reality, Sevilla really deserved this victory.

The UEFA Europa League quarter final first leg at Old Trafford between Manchester United and Sevilla ended up in a draw because of Erik Ten Hag's tactical substitution. United were two goals up before the break but were drawn level after the second half substitutions . After Lisandro Martinez was injured, Manchester United had already used up their substitution chances in the game and that caused the club to draw a match they were comfortably winning.

United did not qualify simply because for me they trusted themselves and they did not know how to make the most of those players they have, personally I liked that they eliminated them, because in part they realize in Manchester that the usual mistake is Ten Hag, and the team still maintains it, the truth is I don't know how they can always make the same mistakes, Manchester has always been a team that needs to be in the UCL, they need to win the PL and well, they haven't achieved that for a long time, They made CR7 take out through the back door for being more careful with Ten Hag, things that I have not yet been able to understand, while CR7 goes up Ten Hag goes down.

It's normal for coaches to decline, and that's normal in football. That happened because maybe the style of play is no longer suitable for now because there are many new coaches who carry the style of playing modern football. But in terms of quality, we cannot doubt the quality possessed by a Kose Mourinho, he is one of the coaches who has ever existed in the world of football.

Jose Mourinho is a coach who already has a lot of experience in coaching football teams so there is no doubt about his quality. But this also includes the whole team where the players also have to be really fit and good in order to win the match, because Bayer Leverkusen, who became the team against AS Roma in the semifinals of the Europa League this season, is also not in bad condition so Jose Mourinho has to able to give the right direction to his team before the semifinal match begins.

One thing I understand is that even if a coach with a million experience doesn't get the proper support in terms of players, the team also won't be able to jump any further in terms of achievement and performance.
On this occasion I deepen the situation of the two AS Roma and Leverkusen teams, and AS Roma's situation is much more convince for them to qualify for the Europa League final.

that's true but coaches who have experience are very influential in important matches like in this Europa league semi-final.
Jose Mourinho's influence on AS Roma's performance has been quite significant in his last 2 seasons and that is why they are slightly favored against Bayer Leverkusen who have just risen in the second half of this season after being handled by Alonso, although if you look at the strengths possessed by these two teams it is not much different and even Bayer Leverkusen has been more consistent this season in its domestic league than AS Roma.
I also have the same belief that the possibility of AS Roma advancing to the Europa League final this season is far greater than Bayer Leverkusen.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, there are many things that can be discussed and taken into consideration, one is that the team that is Italian, like Roma or Juve, if they reach the final, for me it would be ideal, if not, Well, it would be a mistake, Roma represents a lot, because there is a Mou who has put a lot of love into his team and all the effort he has made together with his team has been noticed, I see Roma as a more solid team, not They have done very well in Serie A, and that they lack or it is imperative that they reach the final, so that it is the reward for all the effort.

Roma have the advantage with this aggregate 1 score, even so, Leverkusen in the second leg may will be more serious to winning and reaching the final, so Roma still have to be wary of with Leverkusen movements in the second leg. Yes Sir similar to the Champions League, the Italian team this season is very good but it will be very interesting indeed, if Juventus and Roma can be in the final. It will lift the spirits of other Italian teams in Serie A, to be more consistent next season.

Winning 1-0 against leverkusen at home still means nothing for me. Roma shall always be careful with leverkusen when it will be playing away. Leverkusen has very good statistic when it was playing at home since xabi was taking the job as a new manager for leverkusen.
Mourinho was able predicting the strategy that used by leverkusen in the first leg. I think that if xabi will be more careful with as roma after its club was losing against as roma. It seems like that roma has equal performance compared with leverkusen.
Leverkusen may need to win with two goals or more at home. It will be a hard job for xabi to win against its teacher in the past. The battle between student vs teacher is always very interesting match to be watched.

As roma must be fully defensive when it will be playing away for the second leg. Mourinho must think about counter attack strategy to beat leverkusen away.
Roma was able winning the first leg even though it was not playing with the best squad.

There is still a long way to go, Leverkusen may do something that is more productive for them, a 1-0 does not guarantee a mutual victory, personally I want Roma to win, because it is a team that does have everything to be champion, In addition , Roma and Juve for me are the teams that most deserve to win the Europa League, however in football it is not who deserves it but whoever scores the goals is the one who wins , so they have to do a lot to score those goals , no there is another , it is the Only way to win.
