Story updated
The story in brief
7-second readManchester United ended their winless run with a 3-2 comeback victory over AS Roma in the Champions League, featuring key performances and defensive concerns.

From the source
Champions League football returned to Old Trafford tonight as Manchester United hosted AS Roma in a Matchday 4 clash. The Red Devils entered the fixture on one of their worst runs in recent memory, winless in nine matches and clear underdogs against a Roma side enjoying one of their strongest spells.
The Giallorossi arrived in fine form after an impressive start to the season. In 13 games across all competitions, they had suffered just a single defeat, against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Sitting third in Serie A and fresh from a thumping 5-2 away win over Udinese, they had also scored 12 goals in their last three league outings, a record that spelled genuine danger for United’s fragile defence.
