#2 Manchester United finish second with yet another loss against Valencia:

Manchester United were not clinical once again as they lost to Valencia at the Mestalla. United needed all three points to win the group and hope for an unlikely Young Boys victory over Juventus.

The Swiss side did defeat the Italian giants but United let themselves down with inconsistent performance and lack of intensity as has been the case for the majority of this season. A Carlos Soler strike enabled Valencia to get the lead early on and an embarrassing goal from Phil Jones doubled Valencia's lead.

Marcus Rashford did manage to get a consolation goal, however United ultimately came up short of their target. With this loss, they remained two points adrift of Juve who themselves lost to Young Boys.
