Can Man Utd Qualify for Champions League 16thRound?

Can Man Utd Qualify for Champions League 16thRound?
Can United Rescue Their European Campaign with a Bayern Munich Upset?

Manchester United's Champions League campaign is on the brink of collapse after a disappointing draw with Copenhagen. The Red Devils now need to win their final group game against Bayern Munich and hope that there is no winner in the other match between Copenhagen and Galatasaray.
It's a tough ask, but United have a history of pulling off the unexpected. In 1999, they famously beat Bayern Munich in the final of the Champions League. The Red Devils came from a goal down to score two last-gasp goals by Sheringham (90'+1) and Solskjær (90+3). Since then, United have played 8 games against Bayern Munich (W1, D3, L4). Again, in 2019, they came from 1-0 down to beat Paris Saint-Germain in the same competition 3-1 in a round of 16 match.

So, is it possible that United can do it again?

Arsenal Crushes Lens, Setting New Records in UCL

Arsenal Crushes Lens, Setting New Records in UCL
In a display of quality defending and attacking prowess, Arsenal etched their names into Champions League history with a resounding victory over RC Lens on Wednesday night, setting new benchmarks in the process. The Gunners, fueled by an insatiable hunger for victory, unleashed an offensive onslaught that left Lens bewildered and shellshocked.
Arsenal made history of becoming the first English team to lead by five goals at half-time in a Champions League game. The Gunners also became the first side to have five different goal scorers in the first half of a Champions League game.
From the opening whistle, Arsenal asserted their authority, dictating the tempo and rhythm of the game. Their attacking intent was evident, and it was only a matter of time before the first goal arrived. Kai Havertz, one of the new players of the team, broke the deadlock in the 13th minute. The Gunners doubled the lead at 21 minutes when Gabriel Jesus scored a stunning goal.
Arsenal continued to dominate the game and added three more goals before the break. Bukayo Saka scored the third goal and Gabriel Martinelli the fourth in quick succession before Martin Odegaard, the midfield maestro, capped off a remarkable first half with Arsenal's fifth goal.
The Gunners continued to press for more goals in the second half but it wasn't until the 86th minute that Jorginho scored from the spot to make it 6-0 to Arsenal before full-time.
Arsenal's victory was not just about the goals; it was a complete team performance. The Gunners were defensively solid, controlling possession with ease and suffocating Lens' attacking threat. Their passing was crisp and precise, creating openings with surgical precision.
This historic victory will undoubtedly serve as a catalyst for Arsenal's Champions League campaign. The Gunners have sent a resounding message to their rivals – they are a force to be reckoned with, and they are determined to make their mark on Europe's most prestigious club competition.
Here is an outline of Arsenal's records set from the victory against Lens:
Became the first team to score five goals in the first half of a Champions League away game
Became the first team to have five different goal scorers in a Champions League away game.

Conclusion:
Arsenal's victory over RC Lens was a night to remember, a night when the Gunners showcased their attacking prowess and set new records in the Champions League. With five different goal scorers and a five-goal halftime lead, Arsenal sent a clear message to their rivals – they are a force to be reckoned with in Europe's most prestigious club competition.
Arsenal will visit PSV Eindhoven for their last group stage match on 12th December.

United Held to Dramatic Draw by Galatasaray in UCL

In a pulsating Champions League encounter, Manchester United were held to a dramatic 3-3 draw by Galatasaray at the TΓΌrk Telekom Stadium on Wednesday night. The Red Devils, who needed a win to keep their Champions League hopes alive, were twice pegged back to ensure a share of the spoils.
The first half was a lively affair with both teams creating chances. United took the lead early on through a well-taken strike from Alejandro Garnacho. Bruno Fernandes doubled the lead for the Red Devils within 20 minutes with a fantastic right-footed finish. Galatasaray responded in the 29th minute with a free-kick by Hakim Ziyech from about 25 yards from goal. First half ended 2-1 in favour of Manchester United.
The second half continued in the same vein, with both teams going on the attack. United looked to have secured a vital victory when Scot McTominay slides in a fine finish from Wan-Bissaka's low cross towards goal in the 55th minute to put the visitors ahead on 3-1. However, Galatasaray were not to be denied and snatched a dramatic equalizer in the dying moments through a sensational strike from Hakim Ziyech's free-kick at 62nd minute. Many will fault United's goalkeeper, Onana, for a terrible save into his own net. Ziyech's second was a replica of the first-half goal. The home side equalized when Kerem Aktürkoğlu scored a brilliant goal. The substitute was assisted by Ziyech who passed the ball from right-wing. Onana was once again left stranded and it was 3-3 in the thrilling Group A game.
