Jose Mourinho has slammed his Manchester United stars for playing ‘Playstation football’ in their 3-0 victory over Basel on Tuesday evening.

United got off to a flying start in their opening Champions League group game as goals from Marouane Fellaini, Romelu Lukaku and Marcus Rashford sealed a comfortable win at Old Trafford.

But Mourinho hit out at his side’s second-half display and warned his players that their complacency would have been punished by a stronger team.

‘Three points are important at home. Until 2-0 we were very stable, we played with confidence, with good choices,’ said the United manager.

‘After 2-0 everything changed, we stopped playing seriously and stopped making right decisions. We could have put ourselves in trouble.

‘We were playing fantasy football, Playstation football. I don’t like it, flicks and tricks.

‘We gambled and you have to respect your opponent.

‘I don’t know if goal difference will play a part. We lost position, our shape, we lost balls in easy situations. I didn’t like it, the players relaxed too much.’

Elsewhere in Group A, CSKA Moscow came from behind to beat Benfica 2-1 in Lisbon.
