The qualification hopes of the Champions League of Manchester United are still alive after a dramatic 5: 4 victory against Lyon in Old Trafford had won a 7-6 overall victory in her Europa League Quarter -finals.
Thanks to the goals in the first half of Manuel Ugarte and Diogo Dalot, the Red Devils were 2-0 and cruising, but Ruben Amorim’s team, whose preparation for the second leg after a miserable 4: 1 defeat against Newcastle United was less than ideal at the weekend in order to manage their advantage within six second half in recent years.
A near-area head of Lyon Captain Corentin Tolisso followed a shabby Nicolas Tagliafico goal before the former was sent full-time for a second bookable offensive.
United did not manage to use her numerical advantage, and Old Trafford was stunned when an outlier under the direction of Malick Fofana Rayan Cherki, who equalized to earn Lyon last Thursday, got a 2-2 draw of the couple’s couple, a scorching low levels in a motifless and masturbation.
Fofana was then dragged into the penalty area through a combination of Luke Shaw and Leny Yoro, and former Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette sent Onana with 4: 2 with just ten minutes before playing on the 4: 2 player.
All those present were understandably shocked by what they had seen, but they had no time to pull breath when Bruno Fernandes reduced the residues after converting a penalty that was awarded for a foul on Casemiro.
Incredibly, Kobbie Mainoo shot United Level at night and bent a great effort into the back corner, before Harry Maguire played as a temporary striker, at the end of Casemiro’s floating cross to bury a header past Lucas Perri.
The gate triggered Pandemonium in the stands, with the last pipe a famous victory for United sealed and Amorim and his players deliver a real shot in their arms.
