Posted by

Check out this very unfortunate footage of Romelu Lukaku accidentally blocking Alexis Sanchez’s header on goal that looked certain to go in.

Sanchez was at the end of a header that was absolutely goal bound until it hit is team mate Romelu Lukaku who was stood in front of the goalkeeper in the six yard box.

Had Sanchez’s effort found the net it would have guaranteed Milan qualification to the next round of the Champions League but instead they must settle for Europa League football instead.

Some have said that the ‘Manchester United Banter Era’ has followed the two former Old Trafford strikers to Italy and the Premier League sides bad luck is to blame for the unfortunate incident.

Manchester United also failed to qualify for the knockout stages of the Champions League and must also settle for Thursday night football in the Europa League.
