Raphael Varane has shared a defiant message with his Manchester United teammates after they were knocked out of the Champions League on Tuesday night.
With honours even heading into the second leg against Atletico Madrid, it was the Spanish champions who reigned supreme courtesy of a winner from Renan Lodi. It means United can no longer win a trophy this campaign.
However, there is still plenty for Varane and his teammates to play for. Arsenal remain in pole position to qualify for the marquee European competition next season, but the World Cup winner is not about to give up as United set their sights on a top-four finish.

Arsenal take on title-chasing Liverpool tonight (8.15pm) in a Premier League showdown that will be watched just as closely at the Etihad Stadium as it will by those with Old Trafford connections. But as the dust continues to settle on the Atletico defeat, there is no time for finger-pointing.
That's the message from Varane as the summer signing took to social media to share his thoughts on the dramatic events that unfolded against Diego Simeone's outfit. Addressing his 18.2million Instagram followers, Varane said: "We will not point fingers, fight each other or complain.
"We can reflect on the season when the battle is finished. The atmosphere last night was incredible, we will fight for everything for this club until the last minute of the season. Failure is a foundation of victory."
