Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal accused Anthony buy fifa 16 coins Martial of gifting CSKA Moscow a Champions League point as a result of his "stupid'' error in the Russian capital.

Martial scored a fine diving header to grab a 1-1 draw for United at the Khimki Arena, however the Frenchman was to blame for gifting the Russians the lead.

Martial raised his ideal arm going into a challenge with Mario Fernandes in the 15th minute and also the ball struck it, leaving the referee with no solution but to point towards the spot.

David De Gea saved Roman Eremenko's penalty but Seydou Doumbia scored the rebound to put CSKA ahead.

Martial's second-half header saved United's blushes but their manager was disappointed with his star striker for the error that led for the hosts' objective.

Van Gaal stated: "They had the present of an Anthony Martial penalty.

"Martial is really a human getting, he reacts and it's a stupid reaction, but occasionally these points take place.

"He mentioned it's the initial time it occurs to him, if it often takes place with me it's a pity.''

Though Van Gaal was unhappy using the French teenager for correctly handing the hosts the lead, he was pleased to escape from his trip east using a point.

United froze within the first half on a sub-zero night in Russia, but enhanced immediately after the break following the introduction of Marouane Fellaini and could have snatched all 3 points in the second half.

The draw leaves the Red Devils in second location in Group B at the halfway point with the group stages, with residence matches against PSV and CSKA, at the same time as a trip to Wolfsburg, to come.

"I was really happy with the performance," Van Gaal stated. "I knew in advance that it will be a really hard game for the reason that CSKA are extremely properly organised and compact.

"The tempo was as well slow in my opinion, I said that at half-time, and increase our tempo and switching the game from side to side.

"We did that greater in the second half than the very first half. We designed more chances and could have won, but I consider it's a deserved draw.

"I is going to be delighted using a draw greater than a win, we now have two home matches and you may say we're incredibly robust at residence and I hope we can win these games so we are nearly qualified or certified, but we also have a game away to Wolfsburg.

"We are on schedule to qualify after the PSV Eindhoven defeat, which was a really strange defeat for us."

Morgan Schneiderlin was a lot more critical, as the Frenchman believed United slipped up in Russia.

"We had great possession on the ball but we couldn't generate enough probabilities," Schneiderlin stated. "Second half was possibly a bit far better, possibly Moscow have been just a little tired, we kept the ball and produced them run a great deal after which we had some possibilities inside the second half.

"We could have played a little additional direct maybe but we know we can boost."

Still the Frenchman insists by far the most essential thing was to return to Manchester with something within the bag.

"It's never ever simple to come to Russia, we wanted to win but we are going to take a point," he added. "We wanted to come right here to win, but the most important factor was not to leave here with zero points, from time to time the most essential issue is always to get what you can and that's 1 point.

"It's a little of mixed feeling, but inside the Champions League it's a marathon, it isn't just about one game."
