Manchester United vs. Fenerbahce face off this Thursday at Old Trafford for the third matchday of the Europa League. The team led by Mourinho will try to achieve their second victory in the competition against the Turkish side.
After their opening defeat against Feyenoord, the 'Red Devils' of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba, and José Mourinho, third in Group A, can't afford to fail on the day that Old Trafford will once again see one of its recent idols, the Dutchman Robin van Persie.

The forward has just been awarded the prize for the most beautiful goal in the history of the Premier League scored by a player with over 100 goals. An accolade that only 25 players, who have surpassed the century mark of goals in the current English championship in the past 24 years, were nominated for.
But no one forgets at the 'Theater of Dreams' the volley against Aston Villa in 2013 that gave Manchester their twentieth league title. The emotion will be strong for Van Persie, probably as much as the one experienced by the members of the Turkish club's expedition when their plane was forced to make an emergency landing at Budapest airport due to a hatch breaking after a bird impact.
