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 v Manchester United

Last season Bayern Munich completed an unblemished group stage with six wins for the third time, which no other club has achieved in the competition.

When combined with the fact the German side have never lost to Manchester United on home soil, the size of the task tonight for Erik Ten Hag’s team becomes clear.

Bayern Munich v Manchester United: 10 minutes until kick-off

In ten minutes this season’s UEFA Champions League campaign will start for Erik Ten Hag and Thomas Tuchel.

Not many are tipping Manchester United for success at the Allianz Arena, and new Bayern Munich man Harry Kane will be in the spotlight as he makes his first European appearance for his new club.

Making the story even more dramatic is the fact that Kane seemed destined to join The Red Devils, but eventually signed for the German champions for a substantial fee rather than waiting out his contract to join Erik Ten Hag’s side.

Since these two sides last met almost ten years ago, Bayern have gone on to reach the quarter-finals of the competition every year, whereas United have even failed to qualify for four.

It would be quite the upset should Manchester United return to Old Trafford with a lead to defend.

Harry Kane defends ‘scapegoated’ Harry Maguire amid ‘unnecessary scrutiny’

Harry Kane defended Harry Maguire as the England captain hit out at the way the defender has been “scapegoated” amid “really unnecessary scrutiny”.

Little more than two years on from being named in the European Championship team of the tournament, the 30-year-old is now the butt of jokes to many.

Maguire’s struggle for form and game-time at Manchester United have increased the spotlight on a player that has remained an integral part of the England squad.
