Despite a decent outing in the Champions League, Manchester United found themselves in a slightly precarious situation heading into the final group game against CSKA Moscow.

A draw would've sealed a place in the Round of 16 for the three-time Champions League winners, but the Russian side made things interesting with a gritty performance.

On the cusp of half-time, United succumbed to a relentless barrage of attacking football. Moscow went 1-0 up as Vitinho netted his second goal in Europe and despite all the protests for an off-side, the goal was given.

Replays suggested that Daley Blind in the background was playing the Brazilian striker on.

It seemed a tough ask for the Red Devils to win all three points in this game, but their "Never Say Die" attitude was on display in the second half.

Romelu Lukaku equalised for the hosts in the 64th minute and almost immediately, Marcus Rashford made the most of Lukaku's through ball to give United a 2-1 lead.

They held the advantage until the final whistle and continued their impressive home run across all tournaments.

A nightmare occurred later on at the Theatre of Dreams when Sevilla registered a 2-1 win in the second leg of the Round of 16. But this game against CSK Moscow was quite a thriller.
