– They defended very well and had two good goals on counterattacks. Bad defense on our part, but still two good goals from them, said Solskjær after the match.

It wasn’t so quiet in Viasat’s studio after the first round.

– Manchester United’s defensive play is possibly in ban. Bosphorus Strait, for the kind of arrangement that we barely remember seeing as what happened in the first goal, Daniel Høglund initiated the breakdown in the arrangement between Basaksehir and United.

– In fact, I’ve never seen this before.

Then Solskjær’s men were down 2-1, and that after two goals from the home team where United’s defense fell apart.

– You don’t believe it until you see it. This is why I’ve never actually seen this level here before, Morten Langli added in the Viasat studio during halftime if United’s first goal conceded.

After thirteen minutes played, it was 1-0 for the locals. That after a corner to United where the midfielders were inside the rival goal area.

The ball landed at the feet of Edin Visca, who was completely unmarked in the area.

– Where in the world was the Manchester United midfielder couple? That’s the enigma of the night, Roar Stokke said.

Just half an hour later, the home team scored again, also after a failed defensive game.

– And there was the famous barn door wide open for Manchester United, said Stokke.

– All the way there

United found the net just before halftime when Anthony Martial headed the ball into goal after a Luke Shaw cross, but a scoreless second half provided three points for the home team.

– That’s how it is in football, when you are in the Champions League, the English elite series, you have to perform better. We didn’t do well enough, Solskjær said after the match.

Wednesday’s defeat in the Champions League comes a week after the great victory over Leipzig and the subsequent defeat in the national league against Arsenal. Langli at Viasat’s studio believes that tonight’s loss is one of the lowest points of Solskjær’s career at United.

– This is right there considering the weakest performance. They had a great blast against Tottenham, there have been a couple of league losses for Crystal Palace, there have been some ugly shots. But this here, far against a weak team, to fail so completely. Individual players do not stand out and as a team it is not good, Langli declared after the match.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær and United’s next game is Everton next Saturday.
