90 + 3 min: How does this half have more injury time than the first half? I have no idea but we play on and Atlético look to cut the deficit. Fiamma, who has been good for the hosts this evening, takes a turn but the shot doesn’t have enough power to trouble Tullis-Joyce.

Share

90 + 1 min: There will be four minutes added.

Share

90 min: This evening is just not the night for Atlético. They have had so many chances but they haven’t had the final touch to finish them off. United on the other hand have made their shots count and they are in firm control of this tie.

Share

88 min: The delivery is short and it is swooped into the area but George reads it well to see it out for another corner. It comes in again and it is a mess in the area but it is eventually cleared.

Share

87 min: I am going to sound like DJ Khaled as we have ‘another one’ in terms of a corner. Gio had a punt and it’s judged Tullis-Joyce got a touch on it.

Share

86 min: Le Tissier gives away another corner and this could be the hosts moment. However, Tullis-Joyce plucks it out of the sky and the chance is gone.

Share

85 min: It is going to be a tough ask for Atlético to come back from this deficit. It is not impossible but to make their life easier in Manchester next week a goal in this game would help them heaps.

Share

83 min: Awujo is on for Park as United look to see out this first leg.

Share

Apologies it was Zigiotti, Malard had a lovely back pass to her and she slams it home. That could be the tie.

80 min: I say that to make the point of how impressive they have been this season, especially against teams like Atlético who have experience of knockout football in Europe. The hosts are once again throwing absolutely everything they have at their opponents but the United backline are incredible.

Share

78 min: It is a bit bonkers to think this is the first season United are competing in the proper competition of the Champions League.

Share

76 min: Gio is immediately in on the action and she gets the best of Park. The former Arsenal player picks out Otermin but Le Tissier sees it out for another corner. The set piece ball gets into the area but Tullis-Joyce collects.

Share

75 min: Guijarro and Gio are on for the hosts now as they look to hit back. Gio is back for the first time since October after she broke her leg against United in the league stage.

Share

73 min: United relief some pressure with a free kick of their own after a yellow card is given to Sarriegi after a challenge. It is sent in and Le Tissier gets a touch on it but Gallardo saves. The hosts use it quickly and Jensen’s attempt just squeaks over the bar. Absolutely end-to-end right now.

Share

71 min: The corner is sent in and Lauren hits the deck, she wants a penalty but the referee is having none of it.

Share

71 min: The hosts have another set piece and Boe Risa sends it in, this time from a lot further out. It finds Kuhl but her attempt is wide and Tullis-Joyce saves. Her resulting goal kick finds Jensen who unleashes an attack but Le Tissier sees it out for another corner.

Share

69 min: No matter what Atlético have tried this evening United have been able to repel it. This has been, so far anyway, a really well drilled performance from the English club.

Share

67 min: It has started to rain in Madrid so the pitch will be getting worse out there.

Share

66 min: Wow. What a save from Tullis-Joyce. Boe Risa goes for goal herself from the free kick and the keeper pushes it onto the bar, incredible. It is out for a corner, the delivery is not great and Le Tissier clears.

Share

64 min: The further we get into the game, the more the belief starts to leave the hosts. Their fight hasn’t dimmed but the crowd are much quieter and the buzz around the team has gone. However, this might bring some spark back as Riviere gives away a foul with a free kick in a great position.

Share

62 min: Atlético want a penalty but George’s challenge is absolutely fine and then United make a change with Wangerheim for Naalsun.

Share

60 min: Kuhl and Otermin are on for Menayo and Bartel before the hosts have a free kick after they peeled away following United’s corner. They take it quickly but are forced back to their keeper.

Share

58 min: Malard wins a corner as United continue to turn the screw, the delivery is good and a few players hit the floor but it’s cleared. Terland wants a penalty but nothing is given.

Share

56 min: United keep up their pressure and Wangerheim weaves her way through some players to pass to Park but her shot is wide.

Share

54 min: United are threading a lot of passes together in some patient build-up play but it ends in Gallardo’s hands.

Share

52 min: Tullis-Joyce makes a save as the hosts look to strike while United temporarily switch off, the chances are going to become fewer and fewer as the game rolls on and so Atlético need to strike when they can.

Share

50 min: The corner is delivered well and it is scrappy in there but the hosts eventually win a free kick and Gallardo can clear.

Share

49 min: Sandberg limps to the sideline and she is going to be replaced by George.

Share

48 min: Play has not got underway as Sandberg is down and receiving treatment.

Share

47 min: A lovely move sees Riviere given a great chance, she makes a great run and keeps going. The defender takes a shot but Gallardo saves well but it is out for a corner.

Back underway: Atlético Madrid 0-2 Manchester United

Can the hosts get back into this? Or will Manchester United seal the tie before the second leg? All to come.

Share

Here’s a piece to read before this game gets back underway:

Share

Half-time: Atlético Madrid 0-2 Manchester United

Well what a half it has been for the visitors. A goal from Elisabeth Terland in the third minute backed up by a lovely bit of skill from Melvine Malard. Atlético have thrown a lot at United but they have managed to handle it so far.

Share

45 + 3 min: Possession going back and forth with the game getting a little scrappy as we head towards half-time.

Share

45 + 1 min: There will be three minutes added which is not surprising after that lengthy VAR check earlier and some injuries in this half.

Share

45 min: Lloris is walking around the pitch, being helped by medical staff and she is crying. Such a sad sight, she is replaced by Perez.

Share

43 min: Lloris is still on the side of the pitch but the hosts also have not replaced her yet, it is unclear if she will continue.

Share

42 min: The goal itself was a beautiful strike, Malard got in a good position and absolutely walloped it in the top right corner. The goal will stand as it wasn’t a foul from Malard.

Share

41 min: Atlético want that ruled out as Lloris was down injured, she looks like she is in a lot of pain. Hopefully she is okay, a lot of her teammates have surrouned her.

GOAL! Atlético Madrid 0-2 Manchester United (Melvine Malard)

40 min: What a goal from the French international.

38 min: United win a free kick after a foul on Zigiotti from Sarriegi, though it is a bit of a soft one. It’s a long way out so United have to build, they edge up the pitch but then stall.

Share

36 min: Ah the young girl is back to shout her support to the hosts, it’s amazing to see so many fans in the stadium but the megaphone is a lot. Anyone else watching feeling my pain? Email me and let me know.

Share

34 min: A poor clearance from United puts the hosts in a good position but they are forced back to their own keeper thanks to the defence from the visitors.

Share

32 min: The free kick is popped in but the referee blows her whistle, I think because of some pushing and shoving so they set up the set piece again. It comes in and Lauren gets her head to it but it’s wide.

Share

30 min: It sounds like a young girl is on a megaphone at the ground, starting to get a little jarring just listening from home so who knows what it is like in the stadium. Thankfully it sounds like it has now been taken off of her as the hosts launch their latest attack. Fernandez looked to pass forward but before they can Malard gives away a free kick.

Share

29 min: United are taking the sting out of this, they are weathering the Atlético storm really well.

Share

27 min: I think it was a clash of knees with Park which caused the injury, Fiamma looks okay to continue. She has been taped up and she will be back in the fray soon.
