Manchester United lose to Atletico Madrid as pressure mounts on Carrick

rte.ie —

Manchester United's winless run extended to a fifth match as Michael Carrick's side lost 2-0 to Atletico Madrid in Tuesday's Champions League defeat, with Leny Yoro sent off and pressure mounting on the head coach. Pablo Barrios scored after just 50 seconds, and substitute Ademola Lookman added a second after Yoro's 74th-minute red card. United had a goal ruled out for handball and hit the woodwork twice, deepening questions over Carrick's future. The loss comes after a stoppage-time draw with Tottenham, leaving United with their lowest points after six league games since 1986 ahead of a trip to Leeds.
