Europa League: Man United Ease Pass Sheriff Tiraspol To Record First Win

Manchester United are back to winning ways in the Europa League after they eased past Sheriff Tiraspol at the Zimbru Stadium in Chisinau, Moldova.

Goals from Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo were enough to humble the Yellow-Blacks in their own backyard.

Sancho put the Red Devils in the driving seat just after 17 minutes of play. Cristian Erikson found Sancho inside the 18-yard-box following a series of interlacing passes and the 22-year old floored his marker before slotting home with brazen precision.

The England winger celebrated his goal by holding up a pair of shin guards that were gifted to him by a young fan as a gesture of appreciation.

Ronaldo broke his goal scoring drought by converting fro the spot to double the lead midway through the second half.

Erik ten Hag’s side came back from the recess with a clear intent of going for the kill but Sheriff played a solid second to deny the premier league giants another bite of a goal.
