Manchester United have just disappointed their fans. They didn't play like a team that is fighting to qualify for the round of 16 or even the Europe league. Bayern Munich dominated the game and the Red Devils' attack was blunt which made them produce just one shot on target. Copenhagen and Galatasaray were seen as underdogs that would not give Manchester United any trouble in qualifying for the next round. In fact, the argument was about who between the two teams would move to the European League. Congratulations to these two teams and United should go back and focus in the English premier league.

I am also pleased that Napoli was able to qualify for the next round after beating Braga today. This will be a good motivation for a team that has suffered some disappointing performances recently. Real Madrid's performance in the group stage is 100%, after winning all their six matches and gathering 18 points.

Just because Erik Ten Hag used the same lineup against Chelsea in the EPL to win them doesn't mean they can win Bayern. However, it's the same here am not surprised at all. My anger is that Man United are not playing like they need the match. A game like this they cant even put up a fight at home. Sees like they don't even know what they are playing for. This group stage should be over son, so they can go and focus more in the EPL if by chance they could come out top 5 to compete for the next UCL. By then things may have change for good.

Congratulations to both Copenhagen and Bayern Munich. Much hopes I placed on Galatasaray but they couldn't scale through to the knockouts tonight. After the good performance against Manchester United to seal and salvage a point at home they shouldn't have slacked. Thomas Tuchel came back better after the loss again Frankfurt during the weekend games.

Copenhagen deserves to qualify,they gave Bayern Munich tough time during the both legs. Manchester United should try again next year, Ten Hag may have failed but he remains the right coach for Manchester United. I'm having that feels he'll lose against Liverpool over the weekend coming bit that don't mean he should be sacked.

I'm not really surprised that Manchester united is losing to Bayern, judging from their shaking form, I expected more goal margin from Bayern, Manchester united secures the bottom position on the group successfully, lol.  Was thinking Bayern will not play so actively, judging from the fact that they've qualified for the next round already, but they're not settling for any less and Manchester united is on the receiving end of their harsh decision.

Congrats to Copenhagen fans. They defended Galatasaray really big time tonight. They were the better playing side from the beginning to the end. I was never expecting to see Galatasaray performing this badly honestly. Therefore I must admit that I'm really surprised with this performance. They weren't like they were playing a very important match for themselves.

I really don't understand Turkish teams in critical moments. Galatasaray messed up here as well. If they showed some bigger character here I think that this was a match that they could have won. Thanks to Bayern Munich's winning against Manchester United Galatasaray are continuing with the Europa League at least.

The match is over already, Bayern Munich defeated Man United with 1 goal. It means Man United failed to qualify for the next round in UCL, they also won't go to the plays-off round in Europa League because Man United only finished in the lowest place of group A. Since Bayern Munich played with their best lineup today, I think everyone not really surprising with the result. Man United simply has no chance to beat Bayern Munich because they have stronger players and more organized in playing. According to the stats, it is clear that Bayern Munich dominated the match, they are leading in shot attempts and ball possessions. It is a bit surprised that they play with full team, Bayern Munich didn't give the chance for the main players to take a rest in the final match of the group stage.

Anyway, Galatasaray failed to qualify for the next round, Copenhagen defeated them with 1 goal. So, Bayern Munich and Copenhagen are 2 teams that qualify for the knock-out phase from group A.

If you had been paying attention since the start of their match today, you would have noticed that they were playing a defensive game against Galatasaray. Galatasaray had possession and attacks but were unable to break through Copenhagen's defence and score a goal. Copenhagen had many attacks, but they were unable to use the majority of them due to the defensive game they were playing. Their goal came at an ideal time, but they still had to defend it until the end of the game. Galatasaray's manager employed an excellent strategy, which ultimately paid off in their favour.

Less than 24 hours before the game between Newcastle and AC Milan and Pioli started talking about this game, he said how important is this match for AC Milan to win the game against Newcastle in the Champions League tomorrow. He said this match is a like final game for them
Currently, AC Milan and Newcastle both got five points in the group F.

Wow *smiles*, so many bad news in a day for the Red Devils. What a day for them and the fans, After winning against Chelsea just a few days back to losing back to back matches to Bournemouth and Bayern Munich (if they lose today)

Harry Maguire who has been impressive lately has sustained an injury which is going to be a huge blow for them as there is no available substitute to replace him. I never expected Maguire to be an important player after being treated badly as an out cast.

I say this with so much joy as another lose awaits United, without Maguire and Luke Shaw there will be a huge void to be filled and I doubt if the coach can utilize other players in such a that there would be no problem. Liverpool are top of the league and have been having an impressive run of form so i guess they have another free point coming their way. I guess it’s too many bad news for Ten Hag as another defeat awaits him during the weekend.

I have to congratulate our Copenhagen friends, they did played a wonderful game, their defense was impeccable, one of the best I have seen, we have managed to score against both United and Bayern with this team, and yet failed to score a single game in this game, that shows how amazing Copenhag was on defense, and for good reason, they did put %100 of their play and deserved to go up, hell they even won when even a tie would be enough for them. For us there is nothing much to say, we are going to Europa and when this group phase started if people told me we would go to Europa I would say that makes sense, but I would have guessed Copenhag to be last and United to be second, I would say its a shame that we didn't get promoted to last 16, but its even a bigger shame that United, a team that spends hundreds of millions a year, failed to go to even Europa, that seems like a very unfortunate thing for them. The money part would have been awesome for us if we could have won, but its ok, I hope we can be consistent and go to group stages many years in a row, that is the real achievement, if we can do that even for just 5 years in a row, we would dominate our league completely, but we need to focus on the league now, winning the league means a chance to get another 20+ million UCL group stages entry prize, forget about the europa cup now, its all about getting the title again.

With the current scoreline between Manchester United vs Bayern Munich and Copenhagen vs Galatasaray, Manchester United has been officially knocked out of the Uefa Champions League this season. Copenhagen will be the club to reach the last 16 of the Uefa Champions League with Bayern Munich.

As at the 84th minutes, the status quo still remains. Manchester United on their way out while Galatasaray will be joining Europa league playoff. Both are losing one goal nil to their respective opponents. I had wanted to Galatasaray to win Kopenhavn to qualify for the next stage of the Champions league but it is obvious the home side is the better team. Manchester United actually performed below expectations in this season. They have to face the EPL now that their Champions league journey has come to an end.

Mancheter United's hopes of qualifying for the last 16 have disappeared. Coman scored a goal to give Bayern Munich's lead over Manchester United, while Copenhagen also took the lead against Galatasaray. Manchester United not only failed to qualify for the round of 16, but they also did not qualify for the Europa League considering that Galatasaray had more points. Ten Hag couldn't do much even though Manchester United played well in the first half, but Bayern Munich was much better in this match.

I think Copenhagen has been very unpredictable in the Champions League this season. No one expects them to make it to the round of 16, but I'll be watching the next few minutes to see if they can actually seal their ticket.

I don't think so because looking at anything Arsenal's potential can still be said to be good for this season and they qualify also not merely that this club is easy.
Indeed for Lens and Sevilla they actually did not have a good performance at the start of the season this time not only in the Champions League even in domestic competitions as well but I think Arsenal won indeed they deserved to win.
PSV on the other hand are very strong now and even if they lose this match they will still be able to qualify as runners up because they still have the advantage in goal productivity.
Now looking at the current conditions, it is only a matter of waiting for the end of Group A, Group F and Group H which still has some possibilities, the rest is not too influential because it is certain to qualify.

currently Copenhagen is now leading in their match against Galatasaray with the goal from lerager in the 58mins in the second half which indicates that Copenhagen are playing better than their visitors Galatasaray. And if the matches in their group ends in this current results then Copenhagen will be qualifying with Bayern to R16. The current results are:

 Copenhagen 1 v 0 Galatasaray.
Manchester united 0 v 0 Bayern Munich.

Assuming things turned favourable for Manchester united beaten Bayern Munich yet United won't qualify as Copenhagen will be topping them ahead with 1 point if they eventually win Galatasaray. Let just watch and see what the remaining minutes holds.

We are already entering the ending of the match against Manchester United vs. Bayern Munich, and Munich just scored a goal. Now Manchester United doesn’t have any hope left, all they need in the match is a win. Even if they struggle to equalise, it’s of no use. Before they won’t be eliminated, they need to score two goals in the match, and they have to defend Bayern Munich from scoring more goals, which won’t be possible. Bayern Munich will never allow Manchester United to win the match. The highest that can happen between them is for them to play a draw in the match, which is of no use to Manchester United.

In my opinion, in the PSV match against Arsenal there were no formalities or anything like that. Even if they win, draw or lose, they can still qualify for the next round, they have to keep playing professionally and show their best performance because the Champions League is a very prestigious competition and they have to keep playing well.

And currently the score between Manchester United vs Bayern Munich is 0-1 and Copenhagen vs Galatasaray 1-0, and if the score does not change until the end of the match then Bayern Munich and Copenhagen will advance to the next round. And Copenhagen is actually not the favorite team in Group A, but in the remaining group stage matches Copenhagen provided a surprise.

Glazers have spent more on players in recent seasons than every club in the PL except Chelsea. Man Utd fans love to blame the Glazers but the Glazers aren’t spending the money themselves, they’re not buying crap players for massive fees and coaching them.

Bayern have just gone 1-0 up, Man Utd are going out. Maguire and Shaw injured now too. Their next game…….Liverpool at Anfield **rubs hands together**

Champions League for group A is still quite interesting because the focus now may only be to see who between Copenhagen and Galatasaray wins because for Manchester United actually even though there is time left but still they still cannot convince me until now.
70 minutes of running time for each and currently Copenhagen is still 1 goal ahead of its opponent Galatasaray. If in the end this advantage continues to be maintained then indirectly they will automatically waltz comfortably in second place even if Manchester United win against Bayern unless Manchester United can win by a difference of more than 3 goals.
But on the other hand if Copenhagen fails to maintain its current advantage then Galatasaray will be in second place if Manchester United cannot win 3 points in their match against Bayern.

Im watching Manutd now and I heard a chorus "We want Glazers out lol"
Hard for Manutd to score without Rashford and Martial.
I think this match will end in a draw, also I will be not surprised either if Bayern win while the other match ends with a draw.
