Manchester United were forced to wait to book a place in the Champions League last 16 as Michael Lang's last-gasp strike gave Basel a shock 1-0 win St Jakob-Park on Wednesday.

Jose Mourinho's side were moments away from securing top spot in Group A when Lang pounced on sloppy defending to steal the points for second-placed Basel a minute before the end.

United hit the woodwork twice in a dominant first half, but they were outplayed after the interval and could have few complaints about Lang's dramatic winner.

United remain in first place and a draw at home to CSKA Moscow -- three points behind Mourinho's men on nine and level with Basel -- in their last fixture on December 5 would ensure their progress to the knockout stages on top of Group A.

Basel are also in the hunt heading into their last group game against Benfica, in which they just need to equal CSKA's result to qualify.

"We lost because in the first half we should be 5-0 up but we could not score one goal after being so dominant," Mourinho said.

"It looks for many periods in the first half it was impossible not to win.

"I think the majority of the second half the feeling of everyone was OK, it will be 0-0, but they got the late goal." © AFP
