bernardo silva struck. was the comeback on? well it wasn't to be. sergio aguero came close, but that 2—1 defeat for city and an early blow for their european hopes. manchester united meanwhile, were up against the swiss champions young boys and their artificial pitch. jose mourinho not a fan of the surface, but he'll have enjoyed this, as a rocky start gave way to a rocket. that's super! paul pogba, blasting united ahead and the hosts then gave them a helping hand. a penalty, which pogba cooly dispatched. it's a belter. after the break, anthony martial wrapped up a 3—0 victory for united. for the two halves of manchester, two very different nights. andy swiss, bbc news. newsnight is coming up on bbc two, here's emily. tonight, we ask what falling take—up for the mmr jab tells us
