Champions League: Man Utd-Basel 3-0, as it happened...
Manchester United face Basel in their opening Champions League game of the season. The Red Devils managed to qualify through the Europa League next season but are now among the contenders for the Champions League.
José Mourinho is also ready to make return in Europe’s elite competition after last year when he coached the Red Devils in Europa League.
The Special One talked to assembled media yesterday night saying:"Being back in the Champions League is going back to the natural habitat. For Manchester United it's season after season. For some players there's the motivation of playing in it for the first time, so we look forward to the match and I hope also Old Trafford feels it in the same way we are feeling.”
