Como thrashes Manchester United 4-1 in Champions League

Como secured a dominant 4-1 victory over Manchester United in their Champions League league phase match at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. Argentine talent Nico Paz was the standout performer, scoring twice and providing an assist. Paz opened the scoring within the first two minutes of the match.

Como extended their lead through Anastasios Douvikas and Jacobo Ramon, while Manchester United managed a late consolation goal via Joshua Zirkzee. Following the match, Como manager Cesc Fabregas admitted he had instructed his players to reduce their intensity after reaching a 4-0 lead to protect them for future fixtures, a decision he later expressed regret over.

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick took full responsibility for the defeat, describing the team's performance as “unacceptable” and “difficult to watch.” The loss marks a difficult period for the English club, which has now gone seven official matches without a win.
