UPDATE: Man United finish second despite win over Real Sociedad
Ronaldo missed a great chance to double the lead with a lob on to the roof of the net, before David de Gea produced a fine double save to keep out Andoni Gorosabel and Pablo Marin.
Manchester United defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 thanks to teenager Alejandro Garnacho’s 17th minute goal.
However, the win was not enough to see them secure top spot in the group.
Erik Ten Hag’s side needed to win by two goals or more in Spain to end up as group winners.
Garnarcho brought hopes to that ambition in his second start for United as he found the back of the net in the 17th minute off an assist from Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Red Devils will now play in February’s knockout-round play-offs, where they will face one of the clubs dropping down from the Champions League.
