Manchester United’s Champions League campaign was brought to an end by Atletico Madrid at Old Trafford to leave them with only a Premier League top-four place to fight for this season.
Manchester United players were lacked the guile to break down Atletico’s defence as Renan Lodi’s far-post header four minutes before half-time sent the Spanish champions into the last eight.
Atletico built a wall of defensive resistance to Manchester United dominating possession -and when they did threaten, goalkeeper Jan Oblak provided the final barrier.
He saved Raphael Varane’s header in front of the Stretford End as United were left to fight for a place in next season’s Champions League in the final weeks of the domestic season.
