Dorgu's Honestly Praised For Overturning Man United Penalty

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim praised the sportsmanship of Patrick Dorgu after the Danish full-back told the referee he had made a mistake in awarding the Red Devils a spot-kick in Thursday's 4-1 Europa League win over Real Sociedad.

The first three goals of the night came from the spot as Bruno Fernandes struck twice to cancel out Mikel Oyarzabal's opener.

United were then awarded a third penalty by Frenchman Benoit Bastien when Dorgu went down inside the area.

However, the referee reversed his initial call without consulting VAR as Dorgu reportedly told Bastien he did not think it was a penalty.

"It depends," said Amorim when asked if he supported Dorgu's actions.

"It is the right thing to do. Quite proud of him but if it is 0-0 or we are losing, (I don't know) if I have the same response."

However, in keeping with recent weeks, it was Fernandes who was his side's star man.

The United captain completed his hat-trick to take his tally for the season to 15 goals before Diogo Dalot rounded off the scoring in stoppage time.

United will face Lyon in the Europa League quarter-finals.
