Two minutes remaining, United aiming to take something back to Old Trafford.
How have they held on here?

Five to go, can United hold on to a very good draw after a very disappointing performance?
Atletico Madrid 1-1 Man Utd
A goal away from home for Manchester United.
Doesn't count as double anymore remember.
Atletico Madrid 1-1 Man Utd
That Anthony Elanga goal wasn't the cleanest of strikes, he scuffed it really, but neither the Manchester United players nor the fans will care once single bit.

Alex Telles gives one back to Marcos Llorente and gets a yellow of his own.

It is exactly what I have been saying. Elanga has come on and made runs off the ball and probably for the first time all evening long Bruno Fernandes gets his pass right.
He seems to scuff his shot but it is wide of the Atletico keeper and it bobbles in. He has not had many touches but that touch was crucial and that touch was brilliant.
Anthony Elanga (80 mins)
Equaliser!!
First shot on target and Manchester United have scored from it.
It is a lovely team move, Fred laying it on for Bruno Fernandes and the Portuguese slips a pass through to Anthony Elanga.
The sub strides into the box and strokes a cool finish across Jan Oblak and perfectly into the corner of the net.
"Rhythm is a dancer, Anthony Elanga," sing the away fans.

Cristiano Ronaldo steps up but it's not great, lacing wide.
Jan Oblak STILL hasn't had a save to make.

Now then. United have a free-kick as Fred is bumped off the ball by Angel Correa.
Alex Telles territory this.
Atletico Madrid 1-0 Man Utd
Marcos Llorente fouls Alex Telles and is booked.
This is exactly how Diego Simeone would have wanted it to go, itty bitty, scrappy, no real flow or rhythm to the game.
Atletico Madrid 1-0 Man Utd
The two players who combined for the goal are taken off, the excellent Joao Felix and the equally brilliant Renan Lodi make way for Thomas Lemar and Antoine Griezmann.
For United, Anthony Elanga is on for Marcus Rashford, who did not have the best of games.
15 minutes remaining.
Roman Yaremchuk (72 mins)
All square.
Roman Yaremchuk pops in from close range after a save from the Ajax goalkeeper.

Raphael Varane in the right place as he clears Joao Felix's cross with Atletico sniffing a second.

The confident Joao Felix looking for a spectacular bicycle kick finish but is unable to work David de Gea on this occasion.

Manchester United have not looked on the same level as Atletico Madrid tonight.
They still haven't worked Jan Oblak into making a save.
