Amorim says Man United ready to suffer to reach Europa League final
- Manchester United, managed by Ruben Amorim, must push hard to secure a Europa League final spot after winning 3-0 away at Athletic Bilbao in the first leg on April 27, 2025.
- The team's struggles in domestic competition, reflected in their 15th-place Premier League standing, along with the absence of key defender Matthijs de Ligt due to injury, have increased the difficulty they face ahead of the upcoming Europa League semi-final return match at their home stadium.
- Despite the lead, Amorim cautioned against complacency, emphasizing United's tendency to lose focus under pressure and the need to score again to progress against a strong Bilbao squad missing key players.
- Captain Bruno Fernandes has contributed 19 goals and 18 assists in 52 matches this season, with Amorim affirming the club's intent to retain him despite recent transfer rumors.
- United's Europa League success could salvage a difficult season, with historical data showing all teams scoring three or more away goals in the first leg have advanced, although Bilbao's 40-1 odds highlight the uphill task for the hosts.
