Manchester United, Inter Milan Punch Europa League Quarterfinal Tickets

GELSENKIRCHEN, Germany (AP) — Manchester United and Inter Milan booked their places in the Europa League quarterfinals Wednesday as continental soccer returned amid the coronavirus pandemic.

United won 2-1 against LASK Linz to complete a 7-1 aggregate win over the Austrian club, five months after the first leg was played. LASK held the lead on the night for two minutes after Philipp Wiesinger’s 55th-minute goal, but Jesse Lingard soon leveled for United. Anthony Martial scored another for United in the 88th.

Inter beat Getafe 2-0 with goals from Romelu Lukaku and Christian Eriksen. It was a one-off game played in Germany because they did not complete a first leg before the European season was suspended.
