Man United held by Fenerbahce as Mourinho sees red
How Mourinho's red card helped Manchester United
Alejandro Moreno says Jose Mourinho getting sent off helped Man United settle into their game vs. Fenerbahce in the Europa League.
Fenerbahce coach Jose Mourinho was sent off as his side drew 1-1 with his former club Manchester United in the Europa League on Thursday after Christian Eriksen's early goal was cancelled out by Youssef En-Nesyri.
Joshua Zirkzee found Eriksen with a short pass and the Danish midfielder put United ahead in the 15th minute with a powerful first-time shot from the edge of the area.
United keeper André Onana pulled off a stunning acrobatic double save just before half-time to deny Fenerbahce and keep the dominant hosts from equalising.
However, Onana couldn't stop En-Nesyri four minutes after the break as he headed in Allan Saint-Maximin's perfect cross to level the score for Fenerbache.
Mourinho was shown a red card just before the hour mark after a heated dispute with the referee that seemingly included some colourful language.
The closing minutes were largely uneventful, although United substitute Antony had to be taken off on a stretcher, adding to their mounting injury concerns.
United have three points after drawing their opening three games in the competition while unbeaten Fenerbahce have five points.
