What's more, United avoided suspensions to key midfielders Manuel Ugarte and Casemiro for the first leg of their semi-final against Athletic Bilbao. Both players were on two yellow cards prior to the second leg against Lyon and had they been booked at Old Trafford, they would have been suspended.

Manchester United’s Europa League campaign seemed dead and buried against Lyon, but three goals in the final six minutes of extra time secured a 7-6 aggregate win.

Manchester United hosts Lyon on Thursday, April 17, at Old Trafford Olympique Lyonnais. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. BST local time the UK. That means it's an 9 p.m. CEST start in France, a 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT kickoff in the US and Canada, and a 5 a.m. AEST start in Australia on Friday morning.
