Man United 0-2 Roma
Here’s Richard Jolly inside Old Trafford:
Manchester United are 24th in the live table, just above the dotted line. Although half the teams have a game in hand and if they go three down here, they drop below Sabah in the standings.

32 mins: Only the away fans can be heard inside Old Trafford at the moment as they watch their side pop the ball around 10 red mannequins.
There is a lack of energy and movement all-round. No wind under these sails.

26 mins: United are trying to produce some kind of response.
On each flank, both Dalot and Amad break into the box and go down claiming a penalty, but the referee isn’t having it. Dalot’s claim was soft and Amad’s just wasn’t a penalty – it was a superb recovery challenge by Wesley.
Baleba also had a crack from outside of the box but leans back and it flies well over.

22 mins: United fans are throwing their gold and green balloons onto the pitch. Looks like it’s part of the orchestrated protest against the ownership. Then again, it might just be the closest thing to hand for fans wanting to express their anger at the players.

19 mins: Oh my word, Roma were nearly just in for three. It’s given away and played to Malen in the box, but it runs just behind him.
Ayden Heaven, however, can’t clear and Roma have another chance – this time it’s blocked.
United eventually hoof it up and Fernandes and Soule start getting into it in a United corner. Both are booked. This is falling apart for the hosts. Calamitous.

Here’s Richard Jolly inside Old Trafford:
Not sure bringing in Heaven has worked. He headed thin air, Dalot was caught out of position and, as has often been the case since Shaw was injured, United conceded their first due in part to their lack of a decent left-back.
And minutes later, yet another goal that in part stems from the lack of a proper left-back. Dalot was out of position before Heaven conceded the penalty.

GOAL! Man United 0-2 Roma (Malen, 18′)
Donyell Malen steps up… and he was always going to score in his form.
It is the nightmare first 20 minutes.
