Europa League draw: Man Utd v Celta Vigo, Ajax v Lyon

Manchester United will face
Spanish side Celta Vigo in the
semi-finals of the Europa League.
The Premier League side have won
the European Cup three times but
have never triumphed in the
continent's secondary club
competition.
Dutch side Ajax, winners in 1992,
come up against French club Lyon
in the other last-four tie.
The first legs will be played on 4
May with the second leg on 11 May,
and the final in Stockholm, Sweden
on 24 May.
United manager Jose Mourinho
won the competition with Porto in
2003 and comes up against La Liga
club Celta, who have never won a
major European competition.
Ajax, who beat Schalke 4-3 on
aggregate to reach the last four, are
also experienced European
campaigners. They have won the
Champions League/European Cup
four times previously and the
Europa League/Uefa Cup once,
beating Torino in the 1992 final.
In the Champions League draw,
holders Real Madrid play city rivals
Atletico Madrid and French side
Monaco take on Italian club
Juventus.
Zinedine Zidane's side could
become the first club to retain the
trophy in the Champions League
era in the final on 3 June in Cardiff.
The first legs of those ties will be
played on 2 and 3 May, with the
return legs taking place the
following week.
