Manchester United vs Galatasaray: Hojlund brace in vain, Icardi winner sinks Red Devils

Manchester United vs Galatasaray ends in a loss for the Red Devils. After losing 3-2 to Galatasaray at home on Tuesday night, Manchester United has now dropped its opening two group-stage matches in the Champions League for the first time in its history.Rasmus Hojlund scored twice either side of a Wilfried Zaha equaliser. The game was dramatically turned around by goals from Kerem Akturkoglu and Mauro Icardi in the closing 20 minutes as the Turkish giants bravely came back and took advantage of many defensive miscues by the hosts.

New season and Erik ten Hag couldn’t be turned around yet what he did last season. Man United had the same start last season but they bounced back. The story has been changed. Man United beat Palace 3-0 in the EFL Cup but they failed to beat the same side in the Premier League. They moved to 10th in the table with three wins and four defeats. Man United lost to Bayern when they started the UCL campaign in Germany.

The Red Devils can’t afford to lose points in this game as they are yet to open their account in the points table. They have two games ahead of the international break and Erik ten Hag cannot afford a loss ahead of the next home game against Brentford. They have faced Galatasaray six times and lost just one game. Three games ended in a draw and two wins were recorded.

On the other hand, Galatasaray can take advantage of Man United’s poor form. They have one win against Man United across all UEFA competitions. They last met in the group stage of the 2012-13 Champions League and Galatasaray lost to United in the away game but managed to win in a home game. The Turkish champions dropped points in the last UCL game when they played out a 2-2 draw with Copenhagen in their opening match in Group A.
