Manchester United fans were treated to an impressive Christian Eriksen cameo during the 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid on Saturday.

While Eriksen’s excellence in possession is well-documented, it’s his intelligence off the ball that gives him the freedom to work so effortlessly. He floated a deadly ball beyond the Atletico defence, but unfortunately for United, the pass narrowly evaded both Rashford and Elanga as they powered into the area. Moments later, Eriksen burst forward to close Atletico down and win a corner.

Within five minutes of his second-half introduction, the former Tottenham playmaker almost provided an assist for Harry Maguire at a corner and, also, sent in a devilish cross which Marcus Rashford and Anthony Elanga were unable to turn home. Malacia was the only one of those three who started against Atletico in Oslo on Saturday lunchtime but - despite carving out some good chances - United slipped to a 1-0 reverse. Eriksen is one of three recruits welcomed in so far this summer with United also completing deals for Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez.
