Manchester United begins his Champions League matches with a crushing victory over his Azerbaijani guest

Manchester United not only secured the victory but also sent a harsh message to all their rivals in the UEFA Champions League, as they thrashed their Azerbaijani visitors 4-0 in a one-sided match that they dominated from the first minute to the last.

The opening goal came in the 27th minute following a skillful sequence on the left flank. Young full-back Patrick Dorgu made a penetrating run and delivered a precise low cross, which Brazilian Matheus Cunha met with a first-time shot that nestled into the net, putting United ahead 1-0 and scoring his first European goal in the club’s shirt.

Captain Bruno Fernandes did not wait long to double the lead. In the 42nd minute, before the visitors could catch their breath, United struck a third blow in the 45th minute. A swift attack reached Slovenian Benjamin Šeško, who played a clever pass to Cameroonian Bryan Mbeumo, who finished calmly to end the first half with a three-goal cushion.

Argentine defender Lisandro Martínez capped off the goal-fest in the second half, finishing off a cross with a powerful shot inside the penalty area.
