Manchester United were bundled out of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) at the group stage following a 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.
Kingsley Coman scored the only goal of the match the Red Devils exited Europe at the group stage for the first time since 2005.
Erik ten Hag’s side needed to win to hold on to hope of securing a place in Europe but could not find a way through the Bavarians in Manchester.
Harry Kane would eventually contribute to Man United’s downfall as his pass released Coman and the Frenchman slotted in beyond Andre Onana.
