The standings of the 1st group:

Before the start of the match and in an emotionally charged atmosphere, a minute’s silence was observed in memory of the legend of the “red devils”, Sir Bobby Charlton, who passed away last Saturday (21/10) at the age of 86.

Copenhagen almost made the atmosphere at “Old Trafford” even heavier, after they “touched” the goal with a double chance in the 5th minute, after a quick counter-attack and inertia in the United defense. Eliunoussi crossed from the right and Gonsalves headed the move onto the post, with the ball again reaching Eliunousi, whose shot was deflected against Amrabad for a corner.

In the 21st minute, Rashford threatened for the home side’s benefit, with Grabara making a comfortable save, while in the 38th minute, Copenhagen threatened Onana’s goal again, with Atsuri’s shot narrowly going wide. A boring first half in general, with United not performing as expected and the referee blowing the whistle before 45 minutes of the game had even been played!

The visitors were the first to threaten after the teams returned from the dressing room, with Onana responding with an impressive save from Lerager’s shot, while in the 54th minute Eriksen found himself one-on-one with Grabara, but was beaten in his duel with the goalkeeper of Copenhagen. In 66′, Garnazzo came out… face to face with the Danes’ goal after a counterattack, but he opened the ball giving Grabara the right to come out and block.

In the end, it was Maguire who provided the solution for Manchester United, who took advantage of Eriksen’s beautiful cross, being narrowly covered for offside and scoring with a nailing header to make it 1-0 in the 72nd minute! In the 78th minute, Garnazzo found himself in an advantageous position but finished poorly, with Copenhagen coming within a breath of an equalizer in the 96th minute when McTominay converted a penalty, but Onana saved Larsson’s effort to give his side the win !
