Ralf Rangnick highlights major Manchester United weakness after Atletico Madrid defeat

Ralf Rangnick says Manchester United lacked physicality in their supine Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid.

United were consigned to a fifth trophyless season with a 1-0 second leg defeat to go out 2-1 on aggregate in the round-of-16.

Rangnick barely concealed his dislike of Atletico's obdurate style at his post-match press conference and was especially critical of Slovenian referee Slavko Vincic for making it 'easy' for Atletico to waste time. The interim manager felt United were at a disadvantage to break down Atletico's 'wall' after they went 1-0 down to Renan Lodi's 41st minute goal.
