Man Utd beaten by Atletico as Yoro controversially sent off

Atletico Madrid vs Manchester United. UEFA Champions League.

Man Utd conceded after 47 seconds vs Atletico Madrid after being cut open with a simple ball over the top and the hosts added a second late in the game shortly after Leny Yoro was shown a 'soft' red card following an on-field review by referee Glenn Nyberg

Ten-man Manchester United failed to ease the pressure on Michael Carrick as they were beaten 2-0 at Atletico Madrid in the Champions League after conceding in the first minute.

United's problems spilled out further after the match when defender Lisandro Martinez called out the United hierarchy over a lack of investment in the summer and suggested a change was needed, but not in the dugout.

Now winless in five, United were improved from Saturday's 1-1 draw against 10-man Tottenham in the Premier League but Martinez's comments have ensured there is no respite from the sense of crisis engulfing the club.

On Tuesday in Madrid, United's nightmare start did little to assuage criticism around how easy they are to play against. Atletico opened them up with a simple ball over the top and took the lead through Pablo Barrios after just 47 seconds.

Ademola Lookman put the game beyond doubt for Atletico Madrid with just over 10 minutes to go shortly after Leny Yoro was controversially shown a straight red card following an on-field review by referee Glenn Nyberg.

The France international was deemed to have denied Atletico's Jonathan David a goalscoring opportunity after a coming together between the pair just inside United's half. "It is soft! No way, that should not be a red," Clinton Morrison said on Soccer Special.

Atletico had a second goal ruled out following an on-field review from the referee just before half-time with Marcos Llorente judged to have handled the ball when his arm was in an unnatural position before Johnny Cardoso scored from the edge of the box.

Manchester United created four big chances without scoring any - their most in a Champions League game since September 2012 against Galatasaray (also 0/4).

United were always second best on the night but had more than enough opportunities to equalise at 1-0 with Bryan Mbeumo sending a deflected shot narrowly wide and captain Bruno Fernandes hitting the bar after spurning a decent opening on the break.

However, United, who remain on three points in the Champions League, can have no complaints about losing in Madrid after yet another disjointed performance which only adds to the scrutiny on their head coach ahead of a Sunday's trip to Leeds in the league, live on Sky Sports .

"I have to control myself a lot, but sometimes it's a reflection of how our club is at the moment.

"We had a fantastic season last season and now we expect more from the top, from upstairs, to bring in more players to compete because many teams have brought in many players as well.

"Atletico have an amazing team and they deserve to win today."

On whether he expected more investment in the squad over the summer: "Yes, 100 per cent.

"I expect more from our technical director. I have to be honest. And also, as a player, we have to do more.

"It's also important to build a strong squad to be ready for this kind of night."

On where the club should have invested more: "In general. In general. I think last season we did everything.

"We created the base to build an amazing team. But this is something, to be honest, and to prove something. It's annoying and disappointing coming here.

"I'm not seeing my team trying to get an amazing result here. It's disappointing."

On whether Michael Carrick was sufficiently backed in the transfer window: "I don't think so. I don't think so. He does his best.

"But every season is different. You can't stay with what you did last season. Teams know you, how you play. Teams know every detail, and if you don't change next season, it's a big problem."

Asked if a change at manager is the answer: "You start changing, changing, changing managers. But what about other areas [looking upwards]?

"Because also tonight it's easy to say the coach, it's easy to say the players. But also we have to look at other areas."
