Manchester United Rally From Two Goals Down to Beat Roma 3-2
Manchester United came from two goals behind to beat AS Roma 3-2 at Old Trafford on Tuesday, Nov. 3, in the UEFA Champions League. Roma took an early lead through Matías Soulé and Donyell Malen, but United scored three times after halftime to turn the match around. Bruno Fernandes scored from the penalty spot, and Matheus Cunha added two goals. The result gave United three points in the competition and ended the nine-match winless run it had carried into the game, according to pre-match coverage.

Cunha’s decisive contribution did not mean he finished the match on the field: the match record lists him as sent off in the 91st minute. It records yellow cards for Cunha in the 87th and 91st minutes, followed by the red card. The dismissal came after his two goals had given United the lead, and the recorded final score remained 3-2.

The comeback reversed the direction of a match that began with Roma in control of the scoreline. United’s first goal came from the penalty spot rather than open play, but Cunha’s two late goals completed the turnaround. The sequence of goals—Roma’s two in the opening 17 minutes, Fernandes’ penalty after the break and Cunha’s pair in the final stages—accounts for the 3-2 result.
