Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw by Real Sociedad in their Europa League last-16 first leg clash on Thursday. 

The Red Devils are enduring a woeful season and winning the competition offers their only realistic route to Champions League football. However they could not protect their lead in San Sebastian as Mikel Oyarzabal coolly converted a penalty in the 70th minute after Joshua Zirkzee had put United in front 13 minutes earlier.
