Manchester United exit Europe after Bayern defeat in Champions League
United needed a victory coupled with a draw in the match between FC Copenhagen and Galatasaray to book a spot in the UEFA Champions League 16, but they came up well short on a do-or-die evening against the already-qualified Germans
Manchester United are out of Europe after a one-nil defeat at home against Bayern Munich saw them finish bottom of their UEFA Champions League group.
Bayern were already through as pool winners and will be joined by the second-placed Danes.
It means United miss out on even a place in the Europa League, a competition for third-placed teams in the UCL group stages.
The hosts struggled to create clear-cut openings but did blow a great chance at the start of the second period when Bruno Fernandes flashed over from the edge of the area.
Harry Kane set up Kingsley Coman 20 minutes from time to ensure the Bavarians extend their unbeaten run in the UEFA Champions League group stage to 40 games(W36 D4), the longest-ever run.
Bayern have also won their last nine away games in the group stage, again extending the record.
