Manchester United have won 21 penalties in all competitions this season - the most for any side in Europe's top five leaguesManchester United needed an extra-time penalty from Bruno Fernandes to finally see off a spirited FC Copenhagen and set up a potential Europa League semi-final against Wolves. United were poor for much of the first half in the heat of Cologne but still had a penalty overturned and a goal ruled out by the Video Assistant Referee. United - who won this competition four seasons ago - will now face either Premier League rivals Wolves or Europa League specialists Sevilla in the last four in Dusseldorf on Sunday night. Fernandes fired into the corner without his trademark hop on approach to ensure a 17th European semi-final for United. Man of the match - Karl-Johan Johnsson (FC Copenhagen)Karl-Johan Johnsson made 13 saves this evening, the joint-most by a goalkeeper in a single Europa League game since the competition's re-branding in 2009-10.
