Fans react on Twitter as FC Barcelona defeat Manchester United in their first-ever victory at Old Trafford

In what was a highly-anticipated match at Old Trafford, FC Barcelona defeated the Red Devils with a 1-0 margin; returning home with a crucial away goal. Former Liverpool star Luis Suarez, upon his return to Old Trafford, forced an own goal via Luke Shaw in the early minutes of the game to seal the win for the visitors.

Having secured a one-goal advantage in the first leg, the Spanish giants will have their noses in front in the second leg at the Camp Nou next week.

Following a dominating start to the game, the visitors drew the first blood as Sergio Busquets found Lionel Messi running into the 18-yard box with a splendid lob-pass. The Argentine then chipped the ball to the back post, finding Luis Suarez, who headed the ball back across the goal, forcing a deflected goal from Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw. In the rest of the match, David de Gea stood his ground for the following threats while the opponent goalkeeper, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, remained untested.

While the Catalans dominated the ball possession, the hosts relished more shots on target. Out of the ten shots fired towards the Barcelona goal, seven were on target. However, there wasn't anything special to beat Barca's German shot-stopper ter Stegen. On the other hand, Manchester United skipper Ashley Young put up a shambolic performance for the hosts. The 33-year-old was found wasting possession on numerous occasions; out of the 11 crosses he delivered, none found a teammate.

In what was their fourth defeat in the last five games, the Red Devils showed nerves and the fight-back spirit despite conceding so early in the game. Solskjaer's men will host West Ham United in the Premier League before traveling to Barcelona for the second leg fixture.

On the other hand, the Blaugrana will face Huesca in the La Liga before turning their attention towards the crucial clash against the Red Devils. Having maintained a comfortable lead on the point's table, the La Liga giants have the advantage of resting some key players at the weekend in a bid to keep them fresh for the return leg in the Champions League quarter-final.
