Manchester United beat Real Sociedad 1-0 away but it was not enough to top Group E in the Europa League.
United’s 18-year-old Alejandro Garnacho got the only goal of the game which unfortunately could not help the Red Devils usurp Sociedad at the top.
Going into the game, United needed to win by two goals to be guaranteed top spot but had to settle for Garnacho’s solitary strike.
For finishing second, United may face Barcelona, Juventus, Sevilla or Ajax in a two-legged playoff to reach the round of 16.
Other teams Erik ten Hag’s side may also face are Bayer Leverkusen, Sporting, RB Salzburg or Shakhtar.
