United Defeated Again as Como Pile Pressure on Carrick
Nico Paz scored twice and Como punished United’s injury-hit lineup, leaving Michael Carrick under growing pressure after another European setback.
- On Wednesday, October 21, 2026, Como defeated Manchester United 4-1 at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in a Champions League match, with Nico Paz scoring twice and Anastasios Douvikas and Jacobo Ramon adding goals; Joshua Zirkzee scored a late consolation.
- Manager Michael Carrick entered the fixture facing a severe injury crisis, with nine first-team players sidelined including Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw, while severe weather warnings forecasted heavy rain and thunderstorms at the lakeside venue.
- Manchester United conceded within the opening two minutes for the second consecutive European match, as Paz curled a brilliant left-footed finish past goalkeeper Senne Lammens into the bottom corner, setting the tone for Como's dominance.
- The defeat extends United's winless run to seven matches and leaves them 20th in the Champions League league-phase table, intensifying scrutiny on manager Michael Carrick as his job security comes under mounting pressure.
- Carrick's side has secured only one victory in its last 11 Champions League away matches, a trend that now places severe pressure on the manager to improve results and remain competitive in the tournament's league phase.
