Manchester United secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League, despite the controversial sending-off of Domini Janssen. Fridolina Rolfo scored her first goal for the club, giving United an early lead. Janssen was initially shown a yellow card for a foul on Atletico's Gio Garbeline, but after a VAR review, referee Eleni Antoniou upgraded it to a red card, with Garbeline stretchered off. Despite being a player down, United maintained their lead, with goalkeeper Fallon Tullis-Joyce making crucial saves. Atletico's Alexia Fernandez received a second yellow card late in the game, ending their comeback hopes. This win maintains Manchester United's perfect start in their debut Champions League season, marking them as the only English team to achieve this so far.
