Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente describes his side's Europa League victory against Manchester United as "unforgettable".

Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente has described his side's Europa League victory against Manchester United as "unforgettable".

The Spaniard was on target as Bilbao beat United 3-2 at Old Trafford in the first leg of their last-16 tie.

However, the 27-year-old believes that Wayne Rooney's last-minute penalty put a dampener on the win.

"To concede a penalty at 3-1 in this way was a shame, but I think it is a good result," Llorente is quoted as saying by Marca.

"Indeed, it was unforgettable; the game we all wanted to play. We played very well and were in command for much of the game, playing with the ball and with few attacks from them."

The second leg at San Mames takes place next Thursday.
