Manchester United had a disappointing performance in their latest Champions League match against Galatasaray at Old Trafford.
Despite leading twice through Rasmus Hojlund’s goals, United were unable to hold on to their advantage as the Turkish team came back each time.
Andre Onana, who had an uncertain performance throughout the game, made a crucial error that led to Casemiro being sent off, leaving United to play the remainder of the match with ten men.
Although Mauro Icardi missed the resulting penalty, he later scored the winning goal, sealing a 3-2 victory for Galatasaray.
The defeat raises concerns about United’s ability to progress beyond the group stage, having already lost their opening match against Bayern Munich.

While Onana will face scrutiny for his mistake, much of the blame can also be attributed to the defence who failed to contain Galatasaray’s attacking threat.
The result also highlights the alarming form of United under Erik ten Hag, who has seen his team lose more matches than they have won so far this season.
It remains to be seen how United will bounce back from this setback in their pursuit of European glory.
