Juan Mata throws paper airplane back into crowd during Manchester United’s draw with Sevilla
Mata and his United team-mates did little else to provide much entertainment at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan
JUAN MATA helped Manchester United find their Champions League wings in Seville.
Back in his Spanish homeland, Mata and his United team-mates did little to provide much a thrill at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
But Mata did at least give something back to the fans by flinging a paper airplane into the crowd.
Aside from a wondersave from David De Gea, much of the entertainment came from the stands during the 0-0 draw.
United fans taunted Manchester City fans throughout the game by singing "Will Grigg's on fire" following Pep Guardiola's side's FA Cup defeat to Wigan.
But the best their misfiring stars could do was keep a clean sheet to take back to Old Trafford in a fortnight's time.
Much of the pre-match talk had been over Jose Mourinho's decision to drop Paul Pogba.
But Pogba was on the pitch by the 16th minute after Ander Herrera limped off.
Boss Jose Mourinho then hit out at his medical staff.

"He was pressing really high, we were not giving one inch to them. Then the backheel created the contraction in the muscular area and now we have proof he was not 100% fit."
