If it had not been for the goal inside the first minute, we would be reporting that this has been a fairly even game.

United need to use that disallowed goal as a turning point and come out fighting.

Two little glimmers of hope for Manchester United then.

Marcus Rashford's pace can cause problems and their passing created a hole in the middle of the Atletico midfield.

If there is a positive to this dreadful start, it is that there is so long left.

Manchester United boss Michael Carrick speaking to the media before tonight's game starts, about pressure: "It's not pressure, it's what we do. It's why we're here, it's what we live for, it's part of the business. You're going to get some results that don't go your way and you've got to find a way to overcome that.

"Fantastic game for us tonight. It's a good opportunity for us to put on a good performance, try and get a good result in a tough place. So it's a big challenge for us but we're looking forward to it.

"It's a tough game. We know this stadium and this competition over the years and in the past at the old stadium. They’ve got a good history in this competition, we have to respect that in the sense of we have to be fully prepared and of course we are. It's a great game for us. We have to play well, we have to do a lot of things good but we are capable of winning for sure."

Michael Carrick was asked about Diego Simeone’s legacy at Atletico Madrid and the time he has been afforded to build a lasting foundation, despite not every season delivering success.

Drawing comparisons with Sir Alex Ferguson, Mikel Arteta and Simeone, Carrick said: “They were all given time to build something. It doesn’t always take time, but to get to where you want to be, it’s going to take a bit of time to build that foundation.”
