The second matchday of the UEFA Champions League saw Manchester United crashing to a 2-3 defeat at home against Galatasaray, leaving the Red Devils in danger of an early exit from the Champions League. United have lost their opening two games of a Champions League group for the first time as new goalkeeper Andre Onana had another night to forget in Europe. Meanwhile, Real Madrid secured a dramatic 3-2 win away against Serie A champions Napoli thanks to another Jude Bellingham-inspired European night. Carlo Ancelotti sealed three points on his return to Naples, as Vinicius Jr fired home Bellingham's assist before the England star's solo effort put Madrid 2-1 up at the break.
