UCL Wednesday Roundup: Man Humiliated by Como, Arsenal Hold Bayern as Real Madrid Win
Manchester United had one of their worst European nights, losing 4-1 at home to Como on Wednesday. Arsenal and Bayern Munich drew 2-2, and Real Madrid, Aston Villa and Real Betis all kept winning.
Nico Paz scored after 118 seconds for Como, making United the first English side to concede inside two minutes in back-to-back major European games. He added a second later on and set up Tasos Douvikas in between, and Jacobo Ramon headed in the fourth. Joshua Zirkzee scored a late consolation in stoppage time from an Amad Diallo cross. Michael Carrick kept apologising to the fans afterwards, and the pressure on him is growing.
