United against history, Shakhtar in a message to Punska

The draw for the last 16 of the Europa League invited us to a number of intriguing encounters, but the ones that stood out above them all were AC Milan against Manchester United and Shakhtar Donetsk and Manor Solomon who will face Roma, the same coach Paulo Fonseca who coached the Ukrainians from 2016 to 2019. The black oranges even asked the wolves to “give greetings” to the Portuguese.

The meeting between Milan and Manchester United will be perhaps the most fascinating of this stage. The teams have already met five times in a European knockout, with the Red Devils eliminated in no less than four cases against the Rossoneri. No team has ousted United more than AC Milan, with Real Madrid also knocking the club out of Manchester four times.

Meanwhile, in Italy it is reported that Milan players who watched the draw together reacted with a cynical smile when they saw that they had received the team of Ola Gunnar Solskjaer. Some of the players were also frustrated when they heard the result of the draw, as the team lost 5 of its 12 games in 2021 and is not in good shape. Zlatan Ibrahimovic will play against the ex with whom he won the factory in 2017. By the way, the Swede never defeated the English in his career.
