United attacking is not the problem, but scoring is the problem. If Fernandez doesn't score, United do find it very difficult to score. Look at the empty post that was an opportunity for Hojiluund to double the goal, instead, he played it to the side post even when he is very close to the goal post.
United is playing better than Real Sociedad but it's whomever that scores more will win the game. United should avoid playing penalty shootout because they're not good at penalties. I want Bruno Fernandez to have a good chance of finding the back of the next the second time.
It happened just like you speculated, the team with the most goals won and Manchester United had to be the lucky team cause they were rewarded with penalties, it's suprising concerning how many penalties came out from the match between United and Sociedad about 5, it shows how aggressive both teams defender were. Anyways Bruno would be the happiest player yesterday the penalties made him score a hattrick since he's the penalty taker for Manchester United however his performance was outstanding too and he tried several to create chances for Hodjlund ti score but it seems that dude is so unlucky with finding the back of the net this season. Well, it's good Bruno is in a good form lately and hopefully he maintains it till the season ends cause it would go long way for Manchester United especially in this Europa league tournament.
