The story in brief

33-second read

Manchester United suffered yet another defeat, this time a 2-0 loss in the Champions League away to Atletico Madrid on Tuesday. After accumulating only six points from six Premier League games, the Red Devils had a chance to kickstart their campaign with a famous away performance at the Metropolitano.

It was anything but that! The visitors conceded within the first minute, and the hosts could have scored many more if not for the crossbar coming to United’s rescue.

Leny Yoro was shown a straight red card after he was deemed to have fouled Jonathan David while being the last man. It was a harsh call, and the La Liga giants took immediate advantage of the situation by doubling their lead.
