On Tuesday, the UEFA Champions League season ended for the "Manchester United" team, which in the decisive away match of Group H lost 2-3 to the "RB Leipzig" players. The German club started the match very successfully and already in the 2nd minute they were ahead after Angelino's goal. Only 13 minutes into the game, "RB Leipzig" had a two-goal advantage when Amadou Haidara scored. In the 69th minute, it seemed that "Man Utd" chances to fight for a draw were completely shattered when Justin Kluivert sent the ball into the net. However, the "Red Devils" hope was revived in the 80th minute when Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty kick, and just a few minutes later, Paul Pogba scored the second goal for the team. The visitors could have leveled the score right at the end of the match, but successful goalkeeping by Peter Gulacsi allowed "RB Leipzig" to secure a place in the quarterfinals. "Man Utd" will continue their journey in the UEFA Europa League.
