United will be better in second leg
Zac Sapsford's goal is all that separates the sides going into next Thursday's second leg in Luxembourg, with United spurning a number of chances.
However, while acknowledging their failings, midfielder Sevelj says a recast United side will grow as the weeks go on.
"In parts of the game, we should have been better and we spoke about that in the dressing room, but it's early in the season and we will improve," the Croat said.
"We have a positive result at home and a new game to come in seven days and I think we will manage to go through."

Vlahovic and Goncalo Ramos' future intertwined as United wait
Manchester United may lose two of their potential striking targets to the same team. Striker search After missing out on Liam Delap, Viktor Gyokeres and Hugo Ekitike to Premier League rivals, United are still searching for number nine solutions. The news broke yesterday that United had narrowed their search down to Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins and Red Bull Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko. Nonetheless, should United also miss out on these options, they have been linked to loan options that could come at the end of August. Loan opportunities Juventus' relationship with Dusan Vlahovic is at an all-time low and the club is desperate to see the player leave the club this summer. Moreover, United have been linked to the Serbian and have also been credited with interest in Paris Saint-Germain's Portuguese attacker, Goncalo Ramos. AC Milan lurking United could swoop for either player but this is under threat by the summer activity of Italian giants AC Milan. The Rossoneri's interest in Vlahovic has already been reported on. Italian outlet Calciomercato assert that 'AC Milan is trying to intensify contacts to find the right formula for signing the Juventus number nine. This signing will only happen if the player reduces his net salary to €6-7 million.' The Juventus striker is said to be the club's 'main priority' but the club does have a back-up plan, involving another United target. It is reported that 'AC Milan, however, is also considering other options and their plan B is Goncalo Ramos, the Portuguese striker owned by PSG, who is seeking more playing time and who is looking at his transfer options.' PSG have no intention of selling Ramos, who they paid €65 million just two years ago. Nonetheless, they could be open to a loan move, something that Milan would favour due to their restricted financial situation.

Man Utd consider Premier League star as Andre Onana replacement
Manchester United aren't completely happy with Andre Onana being their number one goalkeeper. The club has been monitoring multiple goalkeepers this summer, with Aston Villa's Emiliano Martinez high on their list. Ruben Amorim prefers Premier League-proven players, and a new target might be emerging for United. Which Premier League keeper could United target? According to talkSPORT, United could turn their focus to Newcastle's Nick Pope, especially with Aaron Ramsdale heading to Newcastle on loan. Pope is out of contract next summer, and his starting spot is no longer guaranteed with Ramsdale around. 📲 Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp The 33-year-old will face competition from Ramsdale, and United could try to persuade the Englishman to be their starting goalkeeper. Amorim has tried to bring Martinez in on a loan deal, and he could look to do the same with Pope. Pope fits the profile of a player that Amorim wants to challenge Onana, and the Englishman has proven to be a good fit in the Premier League. Should United try to sign Pope, he could come at a good price because he only has a year remaining on his current contract.
