Tragically, Manchester Lose And Fall Into The Europa League

JAKARTA - Manchester United must acknowledge the superiority of RB Leipzig after losing 2-3 in the final Group H Champions League match at Red Bull Arena, Tuesday local time. The Red Devils fell into the Europa League.

MU's certainty in the Europa League is because whatever the result of the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Istanbul Basaksehir means nothing with the defeat suffered by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's troops.

They lost head to head with Paris Saint-Germain who have the same nine points. Although until now the PSG match against Istanbul Basaksehir has been postponed due to racial cases, as quoted by Antara on the UEFA website.

This defeat was also the first time United had conceded three goals in two consecutive Champions League matches since April 2003.

Hosts Leipzig needed just two minutes to take the lead when Julian Nagelsmann's side took a 1-0 lead thanks to a goal from Angelino following a well-baked pass from Marcel Sabitzer.

New MU dangerous opportunities were born in the 9th minute, but Mason Greenwood's shot was too weak so Peter Gulasci was easily tamed.

MU conceded again when Angelino sent feedback to Amadou Haidara which this player finished sweetly.
