Harry Maguire's Defensive Disasterclass Sees Atalanta Score Two Goals Against Man United

Manchester United fans have vented their frustration at Harry Maguire following his disastrous first half display against Atalanta in the Champions League.

Maguire was at fault for both goals, with Atalanta two-nil up at the break - thanks to goals from Mario Pasalic and Merih Demiral.

The Man United captain failed to keep out the ball which set up Pasalic and lost his marker from a corner kick moments later.

The Italian visitors took the lead through their Croatian midfielder who scored from close range.

Maguire's defensive position was slammed by fans as the Serie A club opened the scoring in the 15th minute.

Atalanta made it 2-0 from a set-piece, with Demiral heading home after Maguire lost his man.

Again, the England international was subject to criticism for his defending.

Maguire returned to action following his injury lay-off against Leicester City last weekend.

But he failed to make an impact, with his side losing 4-2.
