Meanwhile, Rooney Bardazzi became the youngest player, aged 17 years and 358 days, to score against Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League.

The English side have lost 9 of their 17 games since the start of the season in all competitions. The last time something similar had happened was in the 1973/74 season, when they were relegated to the second division of English football!

Finally, Manchester United lost a game in the Champions League, in which they led by two goals for the first time, while something similar happened in September 2014, when they were defeated 5-3 by Leicester.
