Marcus Rashford was on target as Manchester United put two past Granada, to edge closer to the Europa League semi-final.

A long pass from Victor Lindelof was collected by Marcus Rashford, which he calmly slotted past Rui Silva, the Granada goalkeeper, in the 30th minute.

The Red Devils doubled their lead from the spot in the stoppage time. With Bruno Fernandes stepping up to put the ball in the net once again. Manchester United head to the second leg with a two-goal advantage.

Man United will be without their captain, Harry Maguire, Scott McTominay, and Luke Shaw for the second leg, as they will be suspended after receiving yellow cards in this game.

If Manchester United successfully sees off Granada in the second leg at Old Trafford, they will be playing against the winner from Ajax/Roma match.

Back at home, in England, a late equalizer from Slavia Prague's Tomas Holes ensured the Czech Republic's side left Emirate stadium with an away goal.

Arsenal took the lead from an 86th-minute goal from Ivorian, Nicolas Pepe after Aubameyang cut back to lay a pass for him, from a counter-attack started by Granit Xhaka. Arsenal looked to have taken the victory before Holes sneaked one back for Slavia Prague in the 83rd minute.

Lacazette missed a couple of chances with the referee not awarding a penalty for the Gunners after Bukayo Saka was pushed in the 18-yard box. Willian also had his freekick hitting the sidebar.

Arsenal looked the most interesting side going up front, but couldn't get the final touch in their attacking runs. Not until Mikel Arteta brought on the trio of Aubameyang, Martinelli, and Elneny did they found a renewed energy.

Arsenal will be seeking a victory in the Czech Republic to advance to the next round.
