Atletico sink Man Utd as Viking deny Bayern in Champions League

Atletico Madrid secured a 2-0 victory over Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, continuing their club's poor start to the campaign. The Red Devils have not won a match in their last five games. Atletico opened the scoring in the first minute through Pablo Barrios before Johnny Cardoso scored a disallowed goal before halftime.

Ademola Lookman added a second goal for Atletico in the 79th minute after United defender Leny Yoro received a red card. Manager Michael Carrick described the loss as a one-off game in judgment and acknowledged their team was performing some aspects well. Elsewhere, Viking Stavanger held Bayern Munich to a 3-3 draw in Norway, with Gianni Stensness and Peter Christiansen scoring for the underdogs.

Harry Kane pulled one back for Bayern, but Luis Diaz converted a late penalty to secure the draw. In other matches, Arsenal defeated Lille 3-0 with goals from Jurrien Timber, Eberechi Eze, and Bukayo Saka, while Barcelona came from behind to beat Galatasaray 4-1 in Istanbul. Barcelona remained undefeated in their Champions League campaign, while Inter Milan lost to Club Brugge in a seven-goal thriller at San Siro.
