From the source

Matheus Cunha rightfully stole the show after he came to Manchester United’s rescue in the Champions League clash against Roma at Old Trafford on Tuesday.

The 27-year-old Brazilian forward started out in his preferred left winger role and added attacking support for lone forward Bryan Mbeumo in the thrilling match.

Just as Bruno Fernandes’ spot-kick effort handed Manchester United a lifeline against Roma in the second half, Matheus Cunha turned things up a notch. Cunha netted a stunning — and incredibly impactful — brace in the space of three minutes before he was sent off in United’s sensational 3-2 comeback win over Roma.
