Duisburg [Germany], Aug 12 (ANI): After securing a spot in the Europa League semi-finals, Sevilla manager Julen Lopetegui hailed the club's next opponents Manchester United saying that they're "the biggest team in the world".
"We are going to play against Manchester United in the next match - they're the biggest team in the world but we're going to be prepared for them," Goal.com quoted Lopetegui as saying.
"We're focused on the next game, against a top, historic side, one of the best in the history of the sport who are in great form," he added.
Sevilla registered a 1-0 win over Wolves in the quarter-final of Europa League here on Wednesday. Now they will take on Manchester United on August 17.

We needed to have the ball and not make mistakes because they have very fast forwards," Lopetegui said. (ANI)
