Bayern Munich vs Man Utd LIVE: Champions League result and reaction after seven-goal thriller in Germany

Bayern Munich 4-3 Manchester United: Erik ten Hag’s men lose a third consecutive game but show promise

Ten Hag "very respectful" of Bayern Munich ahead of Champions League clash

Manchester United slumped to a third consecutive defeat after a promising start to their Champions League opener against Bayern Munich.

Christian Eriksen should have opened the scoring inside the first five minutes only to be denied by a sharp save from Sven Ulreich. A howler from Andre Onana then gave the hosts the opening goal and they continued to flow on a strange night in Munich.

Leroy Sane added a second before the break and Rasmus Hojlund netted his first goal for United to give them hope of a comeback after the restart.

Eriksen was harshly judged to have handled the ball which led a a penalty that Harry Kane dispatched with ease. Casemiro then score twice - either side of a Mathys Tel rocket - but United couldn’t rescue a draw.

Bayern Munich vs Manchester United

Given the recent turmoil at Manchester United, the lack of available players, and the recent results it is hard to look past Bayern to win the clash, especially adding in the home advantage.

Bayern are unbeaten in the league this year, while United have lost three matches in four games. This one seems an easy pick but you never can tell in the Champions League.

What is the team news?

Manchester United were dealt with a further injury blow to their already-depleted squad against Brighton, when Aaron Wan-Bissaka picked up an injury as a late substitute.

He was on the bench having dealt with an illness, but will now face a period of time out. Left backs Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are already ruled out, along with Raphael Varane and deadline-day arrival Sofyan Amrabat still waiting to make his debut.

Mason Mount has not featured since last month, with Tom Heaton, Amad Diallo and Kobbie Mainoo also out, with Jadon Sancho not allowed to train with the first time, and Antony given a leave of absence following the assault allegations against him.

Last time out: Bayern Munich 3 Manchester United 1

David Moyes led Manchester United to the Allianz Arena as his side sought to build on a 1-1 draw in the second leg of the 2014 Champions League quarter-final clash.

Patrice Evra opened the scoring against Bayern Munich in the second half, but the German side responded only minutes later through Mario Mandžukić.

Goals from Arjen Robben and current vice-captain Thomas Müller were enough to earn Pep Guardiola’s side a 4-2 on aggregate, who went on to lose to eventual winners Real Madrid in the semi-final.

Harry Kane’s former Tottenham Hotspur team-mate Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg was on the bench for Bayern, but didn’t make it onto the pitch.

Bayern Munich vs Manchester United

Good evening and welcome to The Independent’s coverage of tonight’s Champions League action which sees Manchester United travel to Germany to face Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.

Erik ten Hag is dealing with an injury crisis at Old Trafford that has seen the likes of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Luke Shaw and Raphael Varane all sidelined. As such, United’s defensive capabilities are not as strong as they could be which has contributed, among a plethora of other faults, to their recent poor run of form.

The biggest issue is a lack of goals being scored from the forward line but Ten Hag will be hopeful that Rasmus Hojlund can settle quickly and become star forward for the Red Devils.

Bayern Munich in contrast already have one. Harry Kane has scored four goals in as many games since joining the German giants and, in his first clash against an English team this season, he’ll be wanting to impress.

We’ll have all the updates, build-up and team news from the Allianz Arena ahead of kick off at 8pm so stick with us.
