Marcus Rashford was on target again as Manchester United beat Real Betis 1-0 to secure a convincing 5-1 aggregate win in the Europa League last 16.
Facundo Pellistri made his first United start in Thursday’s clash in Spain.
The 21-year-old has previously made six substitute appearances for the club and started his first match in the last-16 second leg.
Harry Maguire captained the team, with Tyrell Malacia and Fred also brought into the side after Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Southampton.
The clash between Betis and United remained goalless at the midway point of a first half the hosts began brightly.
Juanmi struck a glorious chance wide early on and 41-year-old Joaquin saw a stunning effort hit the post.
Betis held the bigger threat in the first half but Pellistri went agonisingly close to putting United into a half-time lead.
Casemiro went down on the left following a foul by Joaquin. Bruno Fernandes swung in the stoppage-time free-kick, but Pellistri’s effort hit the post.
United went into the lead in the 56th minute through a stunning strike from Rashford.
Having uncharacteristically blazed over moments before, the forward unleashed a fizzing 25-yard strike to make it 1-0 on the night
