It was agonizing to see Manchester United knocked out of the UEFA Champions League on away goal rule against Bayern Munich even though they won 3-2 in Old Trafford. Hopefully, more young talents come in to create more creative spaces and with the wealth of experience from the seniors, we can definitely continue to win more titles !!
