Man Utd 5-4 Lyon: Supporters respond to ‘Jaw Droping’ Europa League comeback in Old Trafford to book in semi-final | Football news

Where do you rank that victory over Lyon for Manchester United? It is one of the most amazing competitions of all time.

Sky Sports’ Adam Bate at Old Trafford: United led by two but were two behind With 10 minutes too extra time. The hope to continue to the semi -final of the Europa League was almost extinguished before a hat trick of late goals completed a comeback from Old Trafford that fits the best times in this great club.

United showed a suggestive tifo for the Sir Alex Ferguson stand before the kick-off, with their five captains to have lifted a European trophy on it. The words on that tifo? Never. I’m going. Stop. It is part of the Folklore in United, the stories they tell.

Add this to the stories that the generations pass on. This is not 1999, not the Camp Nou, not even the Champions League. But even that victory was just one down. This was the first match in the big European football history with five goals in extra time.

The final was stirring, everything that will and should be remembered. But of course there were both downs and ups because two of them were scored by Lyon. How did United lose control of the game halfway through the normal time? And then hit the back of 10?

At that time it was an exercise in self -destruction, supporters who looked in a different kind of disbelief about the capitulation they witnessed. But then the turn came. United continued. The pressure suddenly shifted. Important players showed their courage.

Casemiro won a penalty and set up the next two. The Teenage Kobbie Mainoo, with a vortex of those hips, showed that he continues to have a preference for the big moments. And Harry Maguire. It had to be Maguire. The most chaotic victory of all. Never. I’m going. Stop.
