Marc Skinner called for more investment in experienced players from Manchester United in order for his team to push on, after they succumbed to two late Bayern Munich goals and were knocked out in the Women’s Champions League quarter-finals despite a spirited, second-leg performance.
Skinner’s team led on the night for 70 minutes after Melvine Malard’s opener but Bayern built up a heavy spell of pressure in the second half and eventually found a way through United’s dogged resistance. Glódís Viggósdóttir’s header from a corner and Linda Dallmann’s sweetly struck half-volley gave the runaway Bundesliga leaders a 5-3 aggregate victory.
