Since the Newcastle game, it's becoming evident that United would start a game slow and left all to do in the second half. The Red Devils started the game slowly today and never looked to make any forward movement on or off the ball.

Juventus had all the possession in the first half and got numerous chances to take the game away from the home team in the first 45 mins.
Though Juventus was the better team in the first 45 minutes which looked a one-sided game, United looked to force the issue in the second half. Jose Mourinho's side found width in the flanks and carved out few crosses but nothing noteworthy to trouble the Juventus defence. Lukaku didn't look sharp at all as was Marcus Rashford.
Manchester United are now second in the group and still have everything to fight to progress into the next round.

A sports enthusiast and an avid follower of football.
Since childhood I was encouraged to play cricket and in no time it became a hobby. Gradually I found interest in other sports also.
Football is in my blood and I love the electrifying ambiance that surrounds it. I often watch the pre and post match analysis of a match and try to learn how to analyze a football game.
The thing that intrigues me the most is that there are so many things happening behind the scenes that are oblivious to our naked eyes. The technological advancements that has been made are phenomenal.
I like analyzing a game from a statistical point of view. Being a data guy myself , I am firm believer of providing insights through facts and data. Though a game is always unpredictable , analyzing it from different dimensions can provide some very interesting conclusions.
