An entertaining night of Europa League action saw Rangers fall from their lofty ambitions to land in a heap at Bayer Leverkusen’s feet, while Manchester United recorded their biggest away victory of any sort for a long time in front of an empty stadium in Austria.

LASK 0-5 Manchester United

They say that a joke is only funny once it’s been laughed at, and if that’s true, then is a football match only thrilling if people are there to see it? While Manchester United have the biggest fanbase in the world and Red Devils fans will have been watching their side’s latest victory in an 11-game unbeaten run in their millions, no-one was inside LASK’s stadium last night.

With the game being played behind closed doors on medical ground, United tore LASK apart in a blistering performance from the Premier League’s in-form side. Odion Ighalo, who has now scored every time he has started for United, juggled the ball from right foot to left before smashing in an unstoppable shot off the crossbar.
