'Season finished': Man Utd crash out of Champions League in grim $2.5b disaster.

Scholes said on BT Sport: “The manager has shown faith in him to keep playing him considering the form he’s been in. Mata had hardly featured this season, without a single minute in the Premier League. But United made little impact on the Atletico defence, forced to bomb the ball into the box in the final 20 minutes and creating little of note. Atletico resorted to the tried and tested tactics of Simeone’s reign in the second half as they were happy to sit on their lead and were not unduly troubled by a United side lacking in ideas. But the experience of Diego Simeone’s men in the Champions League knockouts shone through as they comfortably saw the game out to reach the last eight for the sixth time in the last nine seasons. Atletico Madrid drove the final nail in the coffin of a miserable season for Manchester United as Renan Lodi’s header sent the Spanish champions into the Champions League quarter-finals with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford to progress 2-1 on aggregate.

Manchester United bundled out of Champions League by spirited ... (ABC News)

Atlético Madrid knocked Manchester United out of the Champions League and moved into the quarter-finals after a 41st minute header from Brazilian Renan Lodi ...

But hopes of an extended run in the Champions League were brought to a sudden end by Benfica, which had a poor domestic season, floundering 12 points from the summit of the Portuguese league. United poured forward after the break in search of an equaliser but there was little design or craft to their attacks and the nearest they came to an equaliser was a fine header from Raphael Varane that had Oblak at full stretch. United is left to focus on a Premier League campaign in which it faces a real battle to make the top four and earn a place in next year's Champions League.

A first half goal from Renan Lodi propelled Atletico Madrid into the Champions League quarter finals.

But that is the sort of territory we are in now. Arsenal have the games in hand to streak clear, even after their defeat at the weekend Tottenham's chances of leapfrogging the Gunners are comparable to the Red Devils'. The headline statistic was the first European match without a shot in 3969 days, since a draw with Barcelona in the Camp Nou. Ronaldo did not even get close. Surrounded on the right byline in the 66th minute Bruno Fernandes, seemingly so inhibited by his compatriot in the colors of Manchester United and Portugal, chucked a desperate cross into the box in the hope someone might be there. Renan Lodi struck and with it went United's sense of stability and any belief in the plan that they applied themselves to in relatively impressive fashion. Yes the volume of goals will swell and there may yet be a few more games when he rolls back the years, just as he did against Tottenham on Saturday. He should not be written off as a footballing force in the here and now but it is now painfully obvious that his true greatness lies in the past.

Man United vs. Atletico Madrid result: Clinical visitors send aimless ... (Sporting News)

Manchester United could not find a way through a defensively stout Atletico Madrid which found a goal and held strong to clinch passage to the Champions ...

The Brazilian has plenty to work with in front of him, too, with a lot of interchange of positions between Ronaldo, Fernandes and Elanga. The first leg in Spain last month ended all square at 1-1, with a late Anthony Elanga goal cancelling out Joao Felix's opener. Griezmann crosses in from the right and it's finished off easily by Lodi, to send the Atleti fans wild. 2:15pm: In his programme notes, Ralf Rangnick lavished praise on Cristiano Ronaldo for breaking the all-time global goalscoring record: "He has now scored 807 goals and I am certain he will keep adding to that total over the coming weeks and months - hopefully including tonight! 81st min: Geoffrey Kondogbia is on to provide some fresh energy in midfield for the Spanish giants, in place of the silky Koke. Elsewhere, Felix wins a free-kick and stays down, with Matic's temper boiling over. Their last success came in 2016-17, when United lifted the Carabao Cup and Europa League under Jose Mourinho. 74th min: Just like it did towards the back end of the first half, this encounter is drifting away — and that's exactly how Los Rojiblancos like it. Long-range attempts are blocked, and high, lofted through balls go to the arms of Oblak. Paul Pogba and Edinson Cavani are warming up, and will be needed sooner rather than later. It comes to nothing, but gives the increasingly-restless United fans something to get excited about. They created an unbreakable barricade around their own box, with United simply devoid of the invention to find a way through. Renan Lodi was the hero on the night, securing a 1-0 victory here at Old Trafford, and a 2-1 triumph on aggregate. That goal came after a relatively bright start for United, but ultimately the Spanish side eased into the next round.
