Manchester United and Vilarreal make the UEFA Cup final today

Englishmen go in search of the second title while Spaniards try new title

Decision Wednesday in Europe. Manchester United and Vilareal soon decide, at 16 (GMT), Arena Gdansk, in the city of Gdansk, Poland, who will be the champion of the UEFA Europa League, the second most important trophy in the Old Continent. On the one hand we have the English club in search of the title for the second time (first achievement in 2017) and on the other we have a team that tries the most important trophy in the history of the club.

For the first time in a European final, the Yellow Submarine wants to make history and win the unprecedented continental title. In an overwhelming journey from the beginning, the Spanish team had the third best campaign in the group stage of the Europa League, and reaches the decision undefeated. In 14 games, there are 12 wins. In the knockout stage, Unai Emery’s men left behind two teams that came from the Champions League group stage in the round of 32 and round of 16 (RB Salzburg and Dynamo Kyiv), passed by Dynamo Zagreb in the quarterfinals, and eliminated Arsenal, owner of the best campaign in the first phase, in the semifinals.

For the next match, the Spaniards arrive with doubts about Foyth’s lineup, while Rulli and Asenjo fight for a place in the goal. In addition, Bacca and Alcacer also vie for a place in the attack alongside Moreno, the team’s greatest hope for goals.

The Red Devils try to win the second title. Unlike Villarreal, the English club fell in the group stage of the Champions League, but, as it was third in the key that disputed, ended up joining the UEFA Europa League. In the playoff, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men left Real Sociedad, Milan, Granada and Rome behind. With good numbers against Spaniards, the Red Devils will try to keep the good record. In eight matches in the competition, there are five wins, two draws and one defeat. The only certain embezzlement at the English club is Martial. The offensive quartet formed by Bruno Fernandes, Pogba, Rashford and Cavani is confirmed.
