Manchester United had to settle for a point in Russia, following a 1-1 draw with CSKA Moscow after a dour affair on Wednesday night.

On 15 minutes Manchester United went behind when striker Anthony Martial handled the ball in the box.
The resulting penalty was saved by David de Gea but fortuitously bobbled back out to Seydou Doumbia to prod into the back of the net.
Martial made amends for giving away the penalty when Antonio Valencia’s header was expertly nodded in by the young striker on the hour mark.
Throughout the remainder of the match United struggled to breakdown their opponents and create any clear cut chances, as the game petered out to a draw.
Here are some of the best reactions on Twitter following the result:
Daley Blind. My word. Every pass is backwards. #MUFC

We have to drop Rooney. There is no defence for not doing so. No player is bigger than the club #MUFC — Gary (@muttslugs) October 21, 2015
