Even if Manchester United secure a much-needed victory over Galatasaray tonight, their Champions League hopes remain firmly in the balance. <\/p>\n

Having lost three of their four games to Bayern Munich, the Turkish champions and Copenhagen, it\u2019s a minor miracle that Erik ten Hag\u2019s side still have a good chance of reaching the knockout stage. With United just a point behind Galatasaray and the Danes, two wins should be enough to put them through to the last 16.<\/p>\n

Crashing out of a favourable-looking group would be a major embarrassment for United. They could even miss out on third and a place in the Europa League. However, it wouldn\u2019t be the first time. Here\u2019s what happened on previous occasions United didn\u2019t get through their Champions League group\u2026<\/p>\n

TNT is the only place you can watch all the action from the Champions League this year. You can see every game from the group stage right through to the final as Manchester City look to defend their crown as the newest kings of the World's biggest and best football tournament.<\/p>\n

1994\/95<\/h3>\n

The 1990s was an era of almost total domination for United \u2013 but the 1994\/95 was one to forget. They were pipped to the Premier League title on the final day by Blackburn and lost the FA Cup final to Everton. <\/p>\n

The Reds also flopped in Europe, finishing third in their group behind surprise group winners Gothenburg and Barcelona. A final-night 4-0 thumping of Galatasaray wasn\u2019t enough to send them through.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

2005\/06<\/h3>\n

Another season where United missed out on the Premier League title and failed in the Champions League, with Chelsea taking the domestic crown with Sir Alex Ferguson\u2019s side second. <\/p>\n

United were surprisingly woeful in Europe having been handed a kind-looking group containing Villarreal, Benfica, and Lille. United, who did win the League Cup that season, finished bottom of the group with just one win and four points.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

2011\/12<\/h3>\n

Ferguson\u2019s penultimate season at the helm will best be remembered for Sergio Aguero snatching the title from United\u2019s grasp in the most dramatic finale in Premier League history.<\/p>\n

In the Champions League, the Reds Devils were given another straightforward-looking group, only to fail to make it through. Three draws were their undoing as they finished third behind Benfica and Basel.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

2015\/16<\/h3>\n

The barren post-Ferguson years were in full swing as United finished fifth in the Premier League under Louis van Gaal. They also finished outside the top two in their Champions League group behind Wolfsburg and PSV Eindhoven. <\/p>\n

United did have the safety net of the Europa League, only to lose to Liverpool in the last 16. They did at least end the season on a high by winning the FA Cup.<\/p>\n

2020\/21<\/h3>\n

This was a nearly season United on several fronts. Under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, they finished runners-up in the Premier League, albeit 12 points back from Manchester City, and went out of the FA Cup and League Cup in the quarter-finals and semi-finals respectively. <\/p>\n

In the Champions League, United plucked disaster from the jaws of progression after topping their section for most of the group phase, winning three of their first four games. However, back-to-back defeats to Paris Saint-Germain and RB Leipzig condemned them to the Europa League. United advanced all the way to the final of the second-tier competition, only to lose on penalties to Villarreal following a 1-1 draw.<\/p>\n
