WHAT A MATCH THIS WAS LAST NIGHT BETWEEN MANCHESTER UNITED VS LYON – A NINE-GOAL-THRILLER NO LESS! IT WAS ALL-GO FROM START TO FINISH, WITH MAN U’S MANUEL UGARTE GETTING THE BALL ROLLING AT 10 MINS. WITH A CRACKER, AND THEN IT WAS OVER TO TEAM-MATE DIOGO DALOT TO NET ANOTHER CRACKER JUST BEFORE HALF-TIME AT 45 +1 MINS. – WITH LOT’S OF ACTION ENSUING BEFORE MUCH LATE DRAMA! WITH MAN U MAKING 484 PASSES THROUGHOUT, WITH AN 84% PASS ACCURACY, AND HAVING 21 SHOTS WITH 8 ON TARGET, AND LYON MAKING 690 PASSES, WITH AN 87% PASS ACCURACY, AND 21 SHOTS, WITH 9 ON TARGET, INCLUDING A STUNNER FROM CORENTIN TOLISSO AT 71 MINS., AND THEN, CRACKERS FROM TEAM-MATES NICOLAS TAGLIAFICO AT 77 MINS.

AND IF THIS WASN’T ENOUGH EXCITEMENT, IT WAS THEN BACK OVER TO MAN UNITED’S KOBBIE MAINOO TO SCORE AN ABSOLUTE BLINDER AT 120 MINS! AND THEN IT WAS EVEN-STEVENS! SO WHAT NOW – PENALTIES?
