Manchester United suffered a shock 1-0 loss away to Feyenoord in the Europa League this morning.
Australian goalkeeper Brad Jones started for the Dutch side and did a wonderful job to keep a clean sheet against the English giants.
The visitors made a whopping eight changes to the team that lost the Manchester derby, which worked against Jose Mourinho’s men who lacked cohesion and zest in their play.
Neither side could break the deadlock in the first half, with the decisive breakthrough coming late on in the 79th minute.
Tonny Vilhena latched onto a fizzed cross from Nicolai Jorgenson to drive a low and powerful shot past a despairing David de Gea, despite Jorgenson clearly in an offside position during the buildup play.
And with 10 minutes plus injury time left, Jones held his nerve when Zlatan Ibrahimovic drilled a free-kick at the 34-year-old who saved at the second attempt.
It was a famous night for Feyenoord and their veteran custodian, contributing to United’s fourth successive European away defeat for the first time in their history.
