In the terrible situation of Manchester United It’s hard to find the light at the end of the tunnel. The ‘red devil‘ visited this Wednesday Copenhagen with the intention of hitting the table in their attempt to qualify for the round of 16, but what they found was a defeat (4-3), painful and with a goal from the rival in the 87th minute, making no longer depends on yourself to qualify.
With four games played, Group A of the group stage of the UEFA Champions League left the English team a very delicate position.
Manchester United are last in the group with only three points out of a possible twelve. A more than inadequate figure considering the rivals he was with. Galatasaray and Copenhagen They beat him with four points. The Danish team, second in the group. Light years away, the Bayern Munichwhich completely blew away its rivals and mathematically sealed its place in the round of 16 last night against the Turkish team.
What do Erik ten Hag’s men need to progress to the second round?
The main basis is that Copenhagen has not won the two remaining matches against Bavaria and Galatasaray. In that case, and regardless of the results achieved by the Anglo-Saxon team, Manchester United will be out of the Champions League.
Considering that the Danes failed in one of their two games, Manchester United classified won their respective duels in Türkiye and at home against the Bavarian giants.
You can also allow yourself to lose or get drawn, as long as they get three points in the other match. However, in the must case, the British picture would require a convoluted carom.
Well, I have to Copenhagen and Galatasaray They did not repeat their results, meaning both did not win one match and tied or lost another. The same on the last day Galatasaray and Copenhagen stick to the tables. A complex combination of results to achieve.
definitely, Manchester United need:
- Win both of their games and Copenhagen aren’t doing the same.
- If one wins and the other loses or draws, a miracle is required to result in an unlikely combination of results.
- If no one wins them, they will come out no matter what.
