Juan Mata scored the only goal as Manchester United defeated Rostov of Russia 1-0 on Thursday, 2-1 on aggregate, to reach the Europa League quarter-finals.

Mata struck on 70 minutes at Old Trafford after being set up by a fine link-up between Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The first leg ended 1-1 in Russia last week.

The quarter-final draw takes place in Nyon, Switzerland, on Friday (1200 GMT).
