Maguire scores last-minute winner as Man Utd beat Lyon in nine-goal classic

Manchester United staged an incredible comeback against Lyon, coming from 4-2 down in extra time to win 5-4 and progress 7-6 on aggregate in the Europa League quarter-finals.

The Red Devils’ season appeared doomed after Lyon took control with two goals in seven minutes, despite being reduced to 10 men.

However, Bruno Fernandes’ penalty, Kobbie Mainoo’s composed finish, and Harry Maguire’s dramatic header in the final minutes of extra time sealed a remarkable victory.

This stunning comeback sets up a semi-final meeting with Athletic Bilbao and puts United just three games away from a potential European trophy.

The match was marked by dramatic twists, including Lyon’s Corentin Tolisso being sent off, only for his team to take a 4-2 lead in extra time.

United’s victory is a testament to their resilience and ability to fight back from adversity, echoing the team’s storied history of dramatic late wins.
