Manchester United led 1-0 at the interval again, dominated the first-half again, squandered presentable chances again and were left to rue them again.
The drenched away-dayers rocked to the United Calypso in the belief of a breakthrough and their sense of adventure was shared by Ralf Rangnick, who withdrew Scott McTominay for Jesse Lingard as Paul Pogba dropped back to defensive midfield for the denouement. It could still not procure the breakthrough.
It is easy to see why Rangnick appointed a sports psychologist. Whenever United suffer a setback, their mental fragilities are all too visible and they struggled to play with the swagger they oozed in the first-half after conceding in just the 47th minute.
