Astana Shock Manchester United in Europa League Despite Jesse Lingard's Goal

Premier League giants Manchester United could not get past Astana during Thursday's 2019-20 UEFA Europa League action, losing 2-1.

Jesse Lingard gave the visitors the perfect start, but Astana improved as the match wore on and drew level early in the second half through Dmitri Shomko. An own-goal from Di'Shon Bernard gave them a shock win over the Premier League giants.

The Red Devils had booked their spot in the knockout stages in the previous round. AZ can claim the lead in Group L with a win over Partizan Belgrade later on Thursday.
