Chris Waddle
Ex-England winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveI think Harry Maguire was saying to the referee 'you actually put the whistle to your mouth [for a possible foul on Anthony Elanga] and we stopped, then you pull the whistle away'.
But you play to the whistle. Atletico did.

Chris Waddle
Ex-England winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveThis is how you talk about Manchester United goals conceded. Everybody says the same thing - too easy.
It's a well-worked goal and lovely delivery at the far post. You would expect him to score from there.

Harry Maguire was straight over to the referee to complain about that decision on Anthony Elanga but realistically, Atletico had a lot to do to score following it and Manchester United's defence weren't switched on.

Renan Lodi (41 mins)
Atletico break swiftly through the middle following that Elanga situation.
Joao Felix is slipped in on the right. He turns inside, backheels it and it's crossed by Antoine Griezmann into Renan Lodi at the back post.
He heads it into the ground and it bounces up and out of reach of David de Gea.

Anthony Elanga goes down under pressure on the right after appearing to beat two players.
He doesn't get the free-kick and Atletico will break.

Chris Waddle
Ex-England winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveYou cannot fault Cristiano Ronaldo tonight. He is putting in so much effort and trying to make things happen, but I would like to see him play a little bit further forward.

Paul Collins: Utd are on top but who didn’t expect that? We all know how Atletico play. But despite being on top Utd aren’t winning/taking advantage. Atletico just cut them open for that offside goal.
Robin: Maguire should not be stepping out of line there. Bruno and McTominay should be in that space pressing the Atletico player.

It's been a good first half from United so far but they haven't created too many chances since that one for Anthony Elanga.
Can they get something before half-time?

Ex-England winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveThe linesman is in a great position and got that one right. It's the first time in half-an-hour's play that we have seen what Atletico are capable of.

HUGE let-off for United.
Marcos Llorente is played in on the right and is inches offside. Inches.
He slides it across to Joao Felix, who pokes it in from a few yards out when he's unmarked in the box.
Ooft. That was so close.

Atletico just can't get it to Antoine Griezmann and Joao Felix. Eventually, Renan Lodi's cross is curled straight into David de Gea's arms, unchallenged.

Ajax 0-0 Benfica (2-2 agg)
Over in Amsterdam, Ajax are still pressing but without really testing Benfica at the moment - that defensive duo of Nicolas Otamendi and Jan Vertonghen are standing firm.
Benfica's Adel Taarabt went in with a fairly high boot moments ago and Ajax defender Daley Blind wasn't too happy, but there was nothing really in it.
