Young Boys 0-3 Manchester United: 5 major takeaways from the UEFA Champions League game

BSC Young Boys v Manchester United - UEFA Champions League Group H
Manchester United beat Young Boys 3-0 to open their Champions League campaign

#3 Young Boys may not even make the Europa place

Young Boys lack the quality to outdo their Group H opponents

Group H is not the toughest group in this year’s Champions League pairings. In a group containing Juventus, Manchester United, Valencia and Young Boys, this looks very much like an order of how the teams would finish after match-day six.

One of either United or Juventus will definitely finish top of the lot, but the race for who snatches the remaining Europa League spot might also come very easy for Valencia rather than Young Boys. The Spanish side put up a lacklustre performance on Wednesday night, falling to a 0-2 home defeat to 10-man Juve.

However, they showed more determination in that game than Young Boys did against Manchester United. The Swiss side defied the odds to win the domestic league last season but playing in Europe is a different story altogether.

Unfortunately, though, it looks like the club lacks the required quality to compete with the other teams in Group H and that could mean they missing out not only on qualification but also the Europa League too.
