Harry Maguire accidentally HEADBUTTS Cristiano Ronaldo at a corner against Atletico Madrid with Manchester United's star man nearly KO'd by his captain on the night the Red Devils are knocked out the Champions League

Footage has emerged showing Harry Maguire accidentally headbutting Cristiano Ronaldo in Manchester United's defeat by Atletico Madrid.

The duo endured a night to forget as United's last chance of claiming silverware vanished with a 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford and 2-1 aggregate loss against the Spanish champions.

Maguire struggled yet again with another poor defensive performance and was ironically cheered off by some of the home fans when he was replaced by Juan Mata with six minutes remaining.
