Manchester United staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Roma 3-2 at Old Trafford, overcoming a two-goal deficit in the second half. Matheus Cunha scored twice late in the match, ending Roma's hopes of a memorable away victory. Roma took the lead in the 11th minute through Matías Soulé, followed by Donyell Malen's penalty in the 18th minute.
United went into the break down 2-0, facing a challenging task in the second half. Bruno Fernandes reduced the deficit in the 58th minute after a penalty kick, and Cunha completed the turnaround with two goals in quick succession, one in the 83rd minute and another in stoppage time. The victory provided relief for manager Michael Carrick, whose team had been under pressure after a series of poor results.
