  "account": "United coach Michael Carrick expressed no relief after Manchester United's 3-2 Champions League victory over Roma. Instead, his sole emotion was pride in a team that deeply values each other. United fought back from behind to end a long winless run at Old Trafford. Matheus Cunha scored twice in a frantic late spell, with academy product Shea Lacey providing the decisive assists after coming off the bench. Carrick was especially pleased with Lacey, who entered the game trailing and immediately lifted the side. Cunha, who ended the match with a red card, praised Lacey's contribution, calling him an \"unbelievable pass\" that helped United stage a remarkable comeback.",
