Wolfsburg 1-3 Manchester United

[Owen celebrating his third goal]

Michael Owen, hat-trick hero! Mickey who turns 30 in 6 days gets an early birthday present as he gets to keep the match ball after scoring all three Manchester United goals.

United needed only one point to make sure they come out on top of the group. It is an amazing win looking at the injuries that United has suffered. Starting the match with just one natural defender in Patrice Evra, United has never looked more weaker. The starting XI included eight midfielders, with Darren Fletcher and Michael Carrick partnering Evra in a three-man defense. Paul Scholes leads the midfield alongside Anderson and Darron Gibson. Ji Sung Park mans the right wing, while Nani goes down the left. With Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov also unfit, Michael Owen and Danny Welbeck leads United's attack. Wolfsburg seems to have a very big chance of getting points here.

Injury problems deepen

United are facing an injury crisis of epic proportions, and not just in defence, with Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov joining an ever-increasing list of players on the treatment table.

There was a further blow to the Reds' rearguard with news that John O'Shea and Jonny Evans will both be out until the New Year.

Sir Alex took a depleted Reds squad to Germany for United's final Group B game with Wolfsburg - a 19-man group containing 13 midfielders.
