the wealth of ideas was to be overlooked, and the same was the number of big chances in a dull performance.

A point in isolation are fine for United, which won the first match in the group with a 1-0 over FC Astana. But compared to tanks much-needed confidence shifts the zero option hardly anything.

AZ Alkmaar have Holland’s best defensive, where the team after eight games in Æresdivisionen just have closed three goals.

It drew on the paper to be a difficult match for United’s little-well-oiled offensive, and the assumption proved justified.

A slight predominance in possession to the English, triggered only very few chances, while the home team had a little easier to get to the options.

Manchester United however came back to the first half’s biggest chance, because fast Daniel James laid the ball diagonally back in the field to the 18-year-old Mason Greenwood, as with almost an open goal kicked the ball right into the only defender between him and the goal.

Substituted Jesse Lingard tried with a fine ending eventually in the second half, but otherwise, it was at the unfinished offensive action.

AZ Alkmaar had individual good chances after the break also, but the Dutch commanded not check with enough for a victory had been earned.

in Fact, was a 0-0 draw the only fair result of a match, that featured on the meager entertainment.

AZ Alkmaar has two points in the group after two matches, while Partizan Belgrade together with United tops the group with four points after FC Astana on Thursday been beaten 2-1 at stamford bridge.
