CHAMPIONS LEAGUE · OLD TRAFFORD![]()
CUNHA'S CRAZY FOUR MINUTES SAVE CARRICK
Two down and booed off at half-time, United storm back to beat Roma, then their hero is sent off
For 45 minutes Old Trafford looked like the end of something. By the final whistle it had seen one of the great Champions League nights, and Michael Carrick was still standing.
Manchester United were two down to Roma inside 17 minutes. Matías Soulé finished an opener that, in Carrick's words, "came from nowhere", and Donyell Malen made it two from the penalty spot. United were booed off at half-time, and Sky Sports judged the setup "arguably even worse than against Como", with Diogo Dalot up the pitch and Ayden Heaven repeatedly exposed down the left.
Scorers Man Utd: Fernandes 58 pen, Cunha 83, 86 | Roma: Soulé 11, Malen 17 pen
