Man Utd outclass Sabah on Champions League return
Azerbaijani champions Sabah received a harsh introduction to Europe's elite with a 4-0 loss to Manchester United.
Manchester United delivered a dominant 4-0 victory over Azerbaijani champions Sabah at Old Trafford, marking their inaugural Champions League appearance in three seasons. The Red Devils capitalized on a fortunate draw to kick off their European expedition. Matheus Cunha, Bruno Fernandes, Benjamin Sesko, and Lisandro Martinez all found the back of the net, showcasing the disparity in class between the English giants and the club that had only recently formed.
Sabah, who navigated four rounds of qualifying to earn their spot on the stage, faced an uphill battle, despite their confident start. United's manager, Michael Carrick, spared key players like Luke Shaw, Harry Maguire, and Marcus Rashford, handing others a breather in the second half. The victory marked a promising start for United, who have struggled in their Premier League opener.
Meanwhile, other English clubs also kicked off their Champions League campaigns with impressive wins, including Arsenal, Aston Villa, Liverpool, and Manchester City.
