Champions League: Ronaldo’s goal fails to save Manchester United from defeat

Cristiano Ronaldo scored again Tuesday night for Manchester United, in their Champions League opener but that did not stop them from being beaten 2-1 by a battling Young Boys.

Despite playing with 10 men for 55 minutes, following Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s red card, it looked like a solid defensive display would see United come away with a point.

But a late error from Jesse Lingard allowed Jordan Siebatcheu (90+5) to slot home the winner with the final kick of the game.

But the complexion of the match-up was changed in the 35th minute as Wan-Bissaka was shown a straight red for a heavy and clumsy challenge on Christopher Martins.
