Man United cruised to a 4-1 win over their opponents who ended the game with ten men.

Who could Man United face?

Man United beat Real Sociedad will face Lyon.

Lyon were 3-1 up on aggregate after the first leg of their tie against FCSB last week.

The French side were heading towards a draw until the final five minutes when striker Malick Fofana scored two in three minutes to claim a healthy lead.

But just like Man United, the French side battered their opponents on Thursday evening.

Georges Mikautadze scored twice, while Ernest Numah also bagged a double, with Rayan Cherki grabbing two assists.

Should Amorim’s side beat Lyon, then a potential semi-final against former manager Jose Mourinho could be on the cards.

Mourinho’s Fenerbahce or Rangers will be in the quarter-finals to face Athletic Bilbao, with one of those three facing the Red Devils in the semis should they make it.

An all-Premier League final against Tottenham is possible, but Frankfurt and Lazio are sure to be contenders to go all the way.
