Led 4 goals 2 to ten minutes from the end of the overtime, Manchester United managed to completely reverse Olympique Lyonnais by scoring three goals in six minutes. At the end of the game, Ruben Amorim sent a word to the supporters who left before the end of the match.
Manchester United and Olympique Lyonnais apparently had an appointment with history this Thursday, April 17. After a 2-2 draw collected at Groupama Stadium on the outward journey, Red Devils and Gones clashed at the Theater of Dreams to get their ticket for the semi-finals. The show did not fail: at halftime, the Mancunians led 2-0 before the Lyonnais reshape their late match and cause an extension.
Reduced to 10, the men of Paulo Fonseca even thought they were spinning towards the victory by scoring two goals in overtime. But in an Old Trafford bubbling, those of Ruben Amorim reversed the trend by scoring three goals in the last six minutes of the match. At the end of the victory, the Portuguese coach wanted to touch two words to the supporters who left when OL led 2-4.
“They will be devastated”

« I looked at the 1999 documentary again to have a little inspiration for these moments. It was a great evening. 4-2 with one less player, we thought it was over, but here, it's never over. I had the feeling that everything was possible here. I sympathize with people who had to go to 4-2 because of the traffic jams, they will be devastated. We know that we are underperformance and that we deserve all the criticisms, but we still have the opportunity to do something special this season “Said Ruben Amorim after the meeting, in comments made by BBC Sport.
After this resounding victory, Manchester United will find the Athletic Club in the semi-final of the Europa League. A delicate new step to approach, but since this path is the last opportunity for the Red Devils to qualify for the next Champions League, we can suspect that the show will be there again.
