From the source

Manchester United produced another Champions League comeback for the ages as they came back from two goals down to beat AS Roma 3-2 at Old Trafford on Tuesday.

It was the Matheus Cunha show as the Brazilian won the penalty before grabbing a brace to turn the match on its head. The way the players pressed and counter-attacked at times was a callback to the United of old, and Michael Carrick must utilise this blueprint against Aston Villa next to potentially save his job.

It was Bruno Fernandes who kickstarted the comeback with his second penalty after he had missed the initial one. Thankfully, the referee had spotted an encroachment that allowed the Portuguese superstar another bite at the cherry.
