`Man Utd was very difficult to play in the second half, when the match was always interrupted. I don’t think the match could go on for three minutes straight, when it was constantly interrupted with players lying on the field,` Rangnick said after the above defeat.

Joao Felix (blue) fell and lay on the field after a dispute with McTominay at Old Trafford on March 15.

Yesterday, Man Utd controlled the ball 61%, launched 11 shots and five of them were on target.

Atletico’s defensive counter-attack was their forte, and made a difference in the 41st minute. Antoine Griezmann crossed the ball for Renan Lodi to head unmarked towards the near corner, leaving David De Gea stranded.

According to Rangnick, Atletico’s goal was invalid because Elanga had been fouled earlier.

Lodi scored the decisive goal in a 1-0 victory for Atletico.

After scoring a hat-trick against Tottenham, Cristiano Ronaldo faded and did not score a single shot for 90 minutes.

Ronaldo’s failure to flourish is part of the reason why Man Utd is unable to find a way into Oblak’s net.

For the fourth consecutive time, Man Utd was eliminated from the Champions League, after drawing the first leg.
