#4 United forwards gave a lacklustre performance

On the other side of the pitch, both Marcus Rashford and Sanchez were highly ineffective for United and the PSG defenders won all the aerial battles inside their own penalty box. Ander Herrera tried to take some shots from the edge of the box but those were duly blocked by the PSG players.

Silva, Kimpembe and Kehrer were all superb in the air, and did not give any leeway to Rashford and Sanchez. It was yet another disappointing performance from Sanchez in a United shirt. He has now scored only 5 goals in 37 matches for United and might be spending his last season at the club.

Pogba took out his frustration on Alves and saw a red card as the match was nearing its end. PSG won handsomely in the end and not even the staunchest of United supporters would expect a miraculous turnaround in the return leg in Paris. As Solskjaer himself admitted, PSG were a notch above United last night.
