Young Boys came from one goal down to beat Manchester United 2-1 in their Champions League opening Group F encounter on Tuesday, September 14.

Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring for the visitors in the 13th minute after tapping into the net a cross from his countryman Bruno Fernandes.

However, the hosts capitalised on Jesse Lingard’s error to power the hosts to a famous victory in Switzerland courtesy of a Theoson Jordan Siebatcheu's 95th-minute strike.

This was after Nicolas Ngamaleu levelled parity for the home team in the 66th minute of the opening half.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men had to play the entire second half with 10 men after Aaron Wan Bissaka was sent off for a dangerous challenge.

Why Man United were favourites vs Young Boys

The Red Devils were heavy favourites going into the game due to the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo on the team but that turned out ugly for the Premier League outfit.

Solskjaer's men will now shift focus to their Premier League meeting with West Ham United on Sunday, September 19.
