Manchester United crash out of the 2023 Champions League campaign.
This season has started off on an unprecedentedly sour note, with a series of unfortunate events plaguing the premier league powerhouse Manchester United. Adding to their despair, the team’s European dreams came crashing down after succumbing to a narrow 1-0 defeat at the iconic ‘Theatre of Dreams’ on Tuesday. In what has been a dismal performance, United’s lacklustre display in the Group A has seen them lose a total of four out of six group stage matches, with an astonishing 15 goals conceded. Copenhagen and Bayern Munich are set to progress to the Round of 16, whereas Galatasaray will be heading to the Europa League as they secure the third spot in their group. Having suffered defeat in 12 out of 24 games this season, this humiliating elimination from European competition increases the burden on Erik ten Hag during an already challenging Manchester United campaign.
