(VIDEO) The absurd blooper by a former Man City player that helped Man Utd

Manchester United know that this Tuesday they have their last chance in the Champions League 2023/24. They are in last place in Group A with 4 points and need a win against Bayern Munich to have a chance of advancing to the round of 16. But that alone is not enough for them. They also need Copenhagen and Galatasaray to draw in Denmark.

Moreover, it is not an easy mission. The German side have won 4 of the 5 matches they have played and not only qualified for the next stage of the European tournament, but also secured the leadership of the group. However, coach Thomas Tuchel did not want his players to relax and that is why he included all the stars of the squad in the starting lineup.

With this scenario, during the first half the match was very even. Both teams tried to control the ball and push their opponents into their own half, but neither of them could impose their style. However, Bayern Munich had the most dangerous chances to score and Leroy Sane was the protagonist of most of them.

The German winger first created an extraordinary individual move, dribbling past several opposing defenders and into the box. But when he had space to shoot, he didn't trust his right foot and attempted a back pass that was intercepted. And the clearest came moments later, when Kingsley Coman sent in a floated cross that found Sane inside the box, but his shot was flawed.

Bad news for Ten Hag

The Manchester United coach had to make a forced change during the first half, as near the end Harry Maguire suffered a muscular discomfort and had to be replaced by Johnny Evans. The English defender joins a long list of injuries suffered by The Red Devils this season.
