United were beaten 2-1 at Old Trafford by the La\u00a0Liga side on Tuesday, with Bailly one of the few players to emerge with any credit.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The centre-back denied Joaquin Correa what looked a certain goal with a terrific tackle\u00a0at 0-0, but Wissam Ben Yedder came off the bench to strike twice in six minutes to down Jose Mourinho’s men.<\/div>\n

Mourinho claimed his side had not given a “bad” performance as they failed to reach the quarter-finals, but Bailly acknowledged in a social media post that United were substandard.<\/p>\n

“We ask the fans for forgiveness following our exit,” Bailly wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\n

“Last night was terrible and we must all reflect and take note so it doesn’t happen again.<\/p>\n

“It’s painful, but we have to get right back up, dust ourselves off, and look ahead.”<\/p>\n
