Manchester United players were taunted by Bayern Munich fans as they warmed up before the crunch Champions League tie.
United went into the game against the German side with a mountain to climb, needing the beat the German champions and hope that Copenhagen versus Galatasaray ended in a draw.
And the Red Devils - who have endured a nightmare campaign so far - found themselves out of Europe completely after losing 1-0 on the night, thanks to Kingsley Coman's goal.
Ten Hag's men finished rock bottom of their Champions League group having won just one of their six group matches and losing four - and before the game even started the travelling Bayern fans added insult to injury with chants mocking the struggling team.
They taunted the players over their woeful recent form in a packed away end at the ground, chanting: 'You're s*** and you know you are' as the home side warmed up.

United went on to lose 1-0 to the German giants in yet another defeat at Old Trafford
The German supporters ended up enjoying a great trip away from home as their team - spearheaded by England captain Harry Kane - ran out winners as they finished top of their group and moved into the knockout rounds.
The result comes off the back of a hugely embarrassing defeat in the Premier League for United after losing 3-0 at home to Bournemouth in the Premier League at the weekend, their fifth defeat in 10 matches despite a reasonably solid short-term run prior to the match.
After losing 3-0 to rivals City in the Manchester derby at the end of October and by the same score to Newcastle in the EFL Cup, United went on a good run domestically, starting with beating Fulham 1-0 on November 4.
Their poor European form continued, however, as they lost 4-3 in Copenhagen with Marcus Rashford sent off.

They then enjoyed back-to-back clean sheets against Luton and Everton, but a 3-3 draw in Turkey against Galatasaray left their qualification hopes hanging by a thread.
A dire performance away to Newcastle in the Premier League followed, where a few of Erik ten Hag's players were questioned regarding their attitude, but the Dutchman won the Premier League Manager of the Month award with Harry Maguire winning the players' version.
They looked to have turned a corner by beating Chelsea 2-1 last week with a fresh team, but the heavy defeat to Bournemouth looked to have put them back to square one.
United needed results in two games to go their way for them to qualify from their Champions League group

Bayern fans mocked their opponents but they didn't go into the game in the best of form, sitting second in the Bundesliga behind Leverkusen, four points away with a game in hand.
Despite beating Cologne 1-0 in the Bundesliga at the end of November, they stuttered to claiming victory in the Champions League group with a 0-0 draw with Copenhagen on November 29.
They then returned to domestic action with a shock 5-1 defeat to Frankfurt on Saturday, with all five home goals coming before the hour mark.
United started the game well at Old Trafford in their bid to stay in Europe but fell short due to Kingsley Coman's goal.
