The Allianz Arena’s PA system began to play ear-splitting can-can music as soon as Andre Onana let Leroy Sane’s shot pass under his body.
The great Manchester United cabaret had arrived, and the town was filled with a distinct sense of low farce. Despite the fact that the Benny Hill theme song may have been considerably more appropriate, it was a suitable piece of joyful music.
Onana took part in last year’s Champions League championship game. He most definitely won’t be doing it this semester.
The Cameroonian must have questioned why on earth he left Inter Milan to join this circus as he buried his head in the ground.
Onana’s error could hardly be excused unless he wished to claim that Brighton’s repeated waltzing through his static caused him to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. It was reported earlier in the day that Richard Arnold, chief executive of United, had reassured the club’s workforce that United was catching up to Treble-winning Manchester City.
Sources claimed he did it while maintaining a straight face, although even by United’s high standards, this seems unlikely.
In addition, former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer stated that several of his United players are not as talented as they believe they are and that two of his players had declined the club captaincy.
The few surviving United players who are healthy and aren’t on the wrong side of the law suffered their third consecutive loss and sixth dismal performance this season as their opponents’ goals against total rose to 14 in their last five games.
The scoreboard appeared tight because of two goals by Casemiro in stoppage time, but it wasn’t at all.
Even though Rasmus Hojlund pulled one back shortly after halftime, Harry Kane’s penalty quickly ended any serious aspirations of a comeback in the Champions League opening. Sane and Serge Gnabry scored twice in the space of four minutes.There are so many jumbled brains at Old Trafford that United should have at least tried to sign the England captain in the summer. Instead, they chose to ignore the glaringly apparent.Therefore, Kane was in Bavaria at the time, contributing to the first goal’s success, scoring the third, and generally proving the tourists wrong. Rio Ferdinand would have practically been worth a spot on Erik ten Hag’s bench if he had taken his boots with him due to United’s injury problems, especially in defense.
Bayern had won their opening group game for the previous 19 years and had not lost here at this level in the previous 10 years, so the task always seemed daunting. Even with a larger injury issue than this one, United did prevail in a knockout match against Paris Saint-Germain under Solskjaer’s leadership. But the days of “impossible is nothing” are long gone, and even with this opposition, the traveling believers who could still remember the 1999 championship game dared not hope. The villagers were as excited about Oktoberfest as anyone with Kane among them. When Christian Eriksen intercepted a sloppy defensive ball, he nearly gave United an early lead before having a cross stopped at the back post and a subsequent shot stopped by Sven Ulreich. 
The first significant attempt on goal by Bayern came at the 28-minute mark. Sane and Kane executed a seamless one-two, but Sane’s strike lacked any bite and crept past Onana and into the goal. When Jamal Musiala toasted Diogo Dalot down the left and cut back for Gnabry to score with an assured shot four minutes later, things got worse. Bayern had performed significantly better than this during City’s quarterfinal victory over Bayern the previous season, although the match ended 4-1 on aggregate. At the time, it seemed like a feverish dream to think that United was somehow closing up on Pep Guardiola’s team. Even so, United returned and scored right after the break. Holland received a feed from Rashford that was slipped to him, turned well in a small area, and had his shot ricochet beyond Ulreich. Although the 20-year-old Dane may not be in Kane’s class, early signs suggest that he will be very helpful. 
The fact that United gave up an unlucky penalty kick just two minutes after fighting back into the game exemplified their campaign. Dayot Upamecano headed down a corner that Bayern gained, and Eriksen moved an arm in the direction of the ball. Ref Glenn Nyberg was ordered to his monitor and told where Kane launched his trademark penalty that was hammered into the corner.This Englishman isn’t afraid to demonstrate how to accept penalties from the Germans. Although it was cruel to his former Tottenham teammate Eriksen, Kane’s fifth goal in five games, was still a good goal. The game threatened to turn violent as Bayern began to genuinely play. Sane hit the post, Kane had a strong shot blocked by Onana, and then an angry Lisandro Martinez slammed the England captain into the billboard. After Kane was taken off the field, Onana made an outstanding stop from Eric Choupo-Moting, but United still managed to score. 
Casemiro tapped in the loose ball as substitute Anthony Martial tripped and fell to the ground. However, substitute Mathys Tel scored in stoppage time before Casemiro added another goal by heading in a Bruno Fernandes free-kick. 
United should still go to the knockout round because they still have games against Galatasaray and Copenhagen. However, you wouldn’t want to place a significant wager on it.
