Manchester United v Atlético Madrid: Women’s Champions League playoff – live — Football | The Guardian

Manchester United lead 2-0 in the second leg and 5-0 on aggregate, a scoreline that has put them in a commanding position to reach the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time.

Julia Zigiotti opened the scoring with a composed finish and Jess Park doubled the lead with a spectacular strike that drew gasps from the crowd.

Atlético Madrid have produced some excellent football and carved out chances but have been unable to make them count; they will need at least five second-half goals to keep the tie alive. United’s clinical edge has been impressive.

Play resumed with United making a change, Awujo replacing Zigiotti, while Atlético brought on Penalvo and Rodriguez for Boe Risa and Menayo.
