UEFA Champions League: Manchester United, Arsenal Fall

Two English sides, Manchester United and Arsenal were defeated on match day two of the UEFA Champions League.

 

Playing at home, Manchester United led twice throught Rasmus Hojlund’s brace, but Galatasaray equalized through Zaha and Akturkoglu.

 

However, the dismissal of Casemiro in the 77th minute saw United crumble. Mauro Icardi scored the winner for the Turkish side in the 81st minute just three minutes after missing a penalty. United are now bottom in their group and they are the only team in Group A yet to get a point after two matches.
