Champions League: Manchester United v Roma updates
Roma led 1-0 after 18 minutes as Matias Soule punished a Kobbie Mainoo turnover, extending Manchester United’s winless run to nine matches.
On Tuesday, AS Roma took a one-goal lead against Manchester United at Old Trafford when Matias Soule broke the deadlock in the 18th minute of their Champions League clash.
United entered the match in a historically poor run of form, remaining winless in nine games for the first time in 40 years and currently sitting 17th in the Premier League, hovering above the relegation zone.
The goal followed a costly mistake by midfielder Kobbie Mainoo, who surrendered possession in midfield, allowing Roma player Evan Mora to deliver a diagonal pass to an unmarked Soule for a finish past goalkeeper Senne Lammels.
Manager Michael Carrick faces intense scrutiny after surviving club crisis talks at Carrington last week, with every match now feeling like a potential final chance to turn the tide amid the club's struggles.
The Red Devils have two more matches before the international break, starting with the visit of Aston Villa on Sunday, which could prove decisive for Carrick's future at the club.
