Real Sociedad of Spain drew with Manchester United 1-1 on Thursday at Anoeta Stadium in the first leg of the round of 16 of the European Football League.
Joshua Zirkzee opened the scoring for United just before the hour-mark in the round of 16 tie before hosts Sociedad were awarded a penalty following a handball by Bruno Fernandes 10 minutes later, Mikel Oyarzabal making no mistake from the spot.
