Manchester United defender Lisandro Martínez has apologized for his post-match outburst against the club's leadership following a 2-0 Champions League loss to Atlético Madrid. The Argentina international met with manager Michael Carrick, technical director Jason Wilcox, and chief executive Omar Berrada on Thursday to address his comments.
