From the source

Source excerpt · The Peoples Person ↗

Manchester United welcomed AS Roma to Old Trafford in a crucial Champions League tie. United had started their last two European ties in terrible fashion by going a goal down inside two minutes, and whilst they lasted longer this time, they were behind after 11 minutes.

Matias Soule found himself in acres of space in the box, and he tucked his effort into the bottom corner under no sort of pressure at all.

United responded well to the familiar feeling of going behind, and Bruno Fernandes’ ball across the area just missed the onrushing Matheus Cunha. Things got even worse for United during the midpoint of the half when the ball hit Ayden Heaven and again VAR intervened and gave a penalty to the visitors.
