Cristiano Ronaldo and Paulo Dybala combine as Juventus sink sorry Manchester United

United were unable to find a way past Juventus after conceding early

Cristiano Ronaldo Press Conference | Manchester United vs Juventus

Manchester United were outclassed as Cristiano Ronaldo's Juventus overcame Jose Mourinho's men in a Champions League clash that was worryingly one-sided at times.

It had been 15-and-a-half years since the most decorated sides from England and Italy last met in a competitive fixture, but anyone watching Tuesday's Old Trafford encounter will be under no illusion who is now in the better health.

Juventus toyed with United at times as Ronaldo enjoyed a winning return to his old stomping ground, with his cross leading to Paulo Dybala's goal on an evening that sometimes threatened to be far worse worse than the eventual 1-0 scoreline.

Big games

It's an important evening for both Manchester clubs. A win for United would see them move above Juventus in the Group H standings, while City are still recovering from a slow start to their campaign. They know that a result at Shakhtar tonight could be crucial.

Manchester United 0-0 Juventus

Delays have been the story at Old Trafford thus far. Rashford wins a free kick in a promising position, but Juan Mata can't take it because a fan decides to run onto the pitch.

Nothing comes of it anyway.

Manchester United 0-0 Juventus

It's been a promising start for United. They've been on the front foot, had a couple of set pieces, and largely penned the visitors in.

Manchester United 0-0 Juventus

The first sign of danger from Juventus. Luke Shaw tries an ambitious pass out of defence but can only pick out Miralem Pjanić. He feeds Dybala, but the Argentine is dispossessed in the box.
