Matheus Cunha's late goals lead Manchester United comeback

Matheus Cunha's late goals lead Manchester United comeback

Manchester United staged a remarkable second-half comeback to defeat Roma 3-2 at Old Trafford in a UEFA Champions League match. Roma initially took a 2-0 lead with goals from Matías Soulé in the 11th minute and Donyell Malen from the penalty spot seven minutes later.

However, United responded in the second half, with Bruno Fernandes scoring a penalty in the 58th minute after his initial attempt was saved. Matheus Cunha then equalized in the 83rd minute and completed the turnaround with a third goal just three minutes later, securing the victory for United.

Despite his contributions, Cunha received a second yellow card in stoppage time, ending his night on a sour note. The win provided relief for manager Michael Carrick, whose team had been under pressure due to a difficult run of results.

In a separate match, Bayern Munich defeated Atletico Madrid 2-0, maintaining their unbeaten run in the competition.
