Michael Carrick made two changes to his starting XI, dropping Lisandro Martínez from the defence while reinstating Kobbie Mainoo to the midfield, as Manchester United welcomed AS Roma to Old Trafford on a cold and wet Champions League evening.
United started on the front foot, but Diogo Dalot's poor positioning after 11 minutes let Matias Soulé ghost into the area and hand the visitors an early lead. Minutes later, Ayden Hevaven's handball gave away a penalty, which Donyell Malen converted to make it 2-0.
With United finding themselves once again in a shocking position, the side felt disorgansed and sluggish in attack.
Failing to find the net, United trail 2-0 at Old Trafford once again as the tie hits 45 miuntes.
COuld have done better to close the angle for thefirst goal, second was a penalty, not done too much otherwise.
A few good challenges and looking solid, but not done too much going forward.
United in dire need of a leader at the back, and he hasn't stepped up.
Unlucky with the penlary, has actually defended very well.
Awful positioning for Roma's first two goals. Was on the halfway line for the first, and was out of place again a few minutes later, which forced Heaven to block the shot and led to a penalty.
A few sloppy passes, needs to fix up on the ball.
Some good driving runs in midfield, but passing coudl be better.
Really poor creating, although he has no runners ahead of him.
No real impact apart from a few driving runs before stopping on the edge of the area.
Literally nothing happened.
