Man Utd finish bottom of Champions League group after defeat to Bayern Munich at Old Trafford

    Manchester United's European campaign is over after Kingsley Coman fired already-qualified Bayern Munich to a 1-0 victory that meant Erik ten Hag's men finished bottom of their Champions League group.

    Kingsley Coman. Kingsley Coman.

    A wild, error-strewn continental group stage left the Red Devils' last-16 hopes hanging by a thread, with progress only possible if they beat the German champions at Old Trafford and Copenhagen and Galatasaray drew.

    But the Danes' victory and Coman's finish from a smart Harry Kane pass in a 1-0 Bayern win saw toothless United's hopes of a Champions League miracle go up in smoke as the curtain came down on Group A.

    The loss also meant Ten Hag's side missed out on the consolation prize of Europa League qualification, with this just the fourth time a Premier League side has finished bottom of their Champions League group.

    United had restricted Thomas Tuchel's men to half-chances during the opening period at Old Trafford, where the hosts' injury list increased as Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw picked up issues just before the break.

    The reshuffled backline looked far more solid than during Saturday's 3-0 humiliation at home to Bournemouth but still could not stop Bayern from running out victorious.

    Coman was a livewire throughout his time on the pitch and Kane, a long-term United target, brilliantly played him in to beat Andre Onana as the hosts bowed out of Europe before Christmas.

    United mustered just one shot on target in a must-win match that is followed by Sunday's Premier League trip to rivals Liverpool. There were boos at the final whistle once again.
