Manchester United transfer news LIVE Bayern Munich vs Man Utd highlights and takeover latest

After finding themselves 2-0 down at the half-time interval, United got themselves back into the contest four minutes after the restart when Rasmus Hojlund netted his first goal for the club.

The Reds have now conceded 14 goals in all competitions so far this season - the most of any Premier League club. They have also lost four of their opening six matches of a season in all competitions for the first time since 1986.

However, United can ill afford to dwell on events in Germany, as they must prepare for the trip to Burnley.
