Six-time champion Sevilla eliminated Manchester United from the Europa League after a 3-0 victory in the second leg of their quarterfinal.
United had beaten Barcelona and Real Betis earlier in Europe's second-tier competition but couldn't keep up with Sevilla — currently 13th in the Spanish league — at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium.
Forward Youssef En-Nesyri scored twice and Sevilla advanced to the semifinals 5-2 on aggregate after last week's 2-2 draw in the first leg at Old Trafford.
Under pressure, United defender Harry Maguire lost the ball outside the area and En-Nesyri scored on a low left-footed shot into the corner past goalkeeper David de Gea in the eighth minute.
Defender Loïc Badé headed home two minutes into the second half and En-Nesyri made it 3-0 late on after De Gea's blunder.
The Spaniards also eliminated United in the semifinals of the same competition in 2020.
Sevilla will face Juventus in the last four following the Italian team's 1-1 draw at Sporting in Lisbon for a 2-1 aggregate victory.
