Manchester United couldn't have started Wednesday's Champions League contest in Italy any worse after hosts Como opened the scoring just two minutes in.
It was a sign of things to come, as Como scored three more goals in the second half to beat the Premier League club 4-1.
Champions League debutants Como went ahead early with Nico Paz's beautiful curling strike.

The Red Devils also allowed a goal in the first minute during their 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid last week.
Manchester United are now the first English club in major European competition history to concede inside the opening two minutes in consecutive matches.
Things got even worse for the visitors after halftime, with Paz scoring again between goals by Anastasios Douvikas and Jacobo Ramon.
Joshua Zirkzee scored a late consolation goal for United, but the deficit was too much for manager Michael Carrick's struggling squad to overcome.
