Commentary
Como score four times again at home in the Champions League, as they sweep Manchester United aside 4-1 to heap more pressure on head coach Michael Carrick. Nico Paz played a starring role for the hosts, who outperformed their 2.04 xG, with two goals and an assist as his side made it two wins from two at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in their maiden Champions League campaign. The Argentine playmaker broke the deadlock after just two minutes with a lovely curling effort into the far corner. He then turned provider with a neat throughball for Douvikas four minutes into the second half. Nico Paz added a third goal in the 57th minute, pouncing on Baleba's error before slotting past Lammens. Ramon added a fourth with a fierce header from close range on 76 minutes, while Zirkzee's header in stoppage time provided United with the merest of consolations. The Red Devils are now without a win in seven matches in all competitions. They'll desperately look to stop the rot when they welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford on Sunday. The previous day, Como aim to build on their momentum when they host Sassuolo in Serie A. That's all for today. Thanks for joining us, and goodbye!
FULL-TIME: COMO 4-1 MANCHESTER UNITED
United go on the attack, but a loose pass goes aimlessly behind for a goal-kick. The final whistle won't be far away now.
Amad's deserved something for his impact since coming on, and grabs an assist with a well-timed cross for Zirkzee to finish.

UNITED HAVE A CONSOLATION!!! ZIRKZEE MAKES IT 4-1! Though it won't count for much, it's beautifully taken by Zirkzee. He stays onside to bring Amad's cross under control, before drilling it past Butez from close range. It's all just come a bit too late for the Red Devils.
Amad desperately tries to make something happen for United with a surge down the right. However, his attempt at a cross is blocked.
