Bruno Fernandes insists Man United has to do a lot of work to reach the knockout stages.
The club captain has admitted the mood in the dressing room is ‘bitter’ after their surprising defeat to Copenhagen on Wednesday night.
United led the game with two goals with a Ramsus Hojlund brace against his former club but the game took a swift turn after Marcus Rashford was awarded a controversial red card.
The hosts turned the game around with two late strikes from Lukas Lareger and Roony Bardghji.
Fernandes explained how the players reacted after such a heartbreaking defeat.
“Disappointment,” he told MUTV.
“I think for everything we did in the game, we could and should have gotten something. It is difficult at the moment, obviously, and the mood is not the best because I think we fought so hard with ten men that even from then on it was playing against a team that plays really well on the ball, and as a part of that, many decisions went against us.
“Today was a tough day but I think the team effort was good. We tried. We could have done some things better, but it was difficult for us from thirty minutes on, playing with one player less.”
