Even though Manchester United and Villareal fans hoped for different things, one thing they agree on is the Europa League could not have had a more thrilling conclusion. The match went into extra-time followed by penalties, which was further stretched into a sudden-death situation. There were 22 penalties taken but just one missed the net.

As the game’s intensity grew, the supporters of the Red Devils and Yellow Submarines were quick to express their reactions on social media.

While some enjoyed the game through a moderate lens and congratulated Villareal for their first major European trophy others went on to enjoy hilarious memes and point out ironies in the game.
