A Point In Porto | FC Porto 3-3 Man Utd
Transcript
00:00Harry Maguire rescued a dramatic draw for 10-man Manchester United after they had surrendered
00:05a two-goal lead and had Bruno Fernandes sent off at Porto in the Europa League.
00:10The injury-time effort could prove priceless for under-pressure manager Eric Tenhag, whose
00:14side were moments away from their fourth loss in 10 games to start the season.
00:18Instead, substitute Maguire rose highest to meet Christian Eriksen's corner and headed
00:23superbly into the bottom corner in the first of five added minutes.
00:27It was a thrilling conclusion to a chaotic encounter at Estadio do DragĂŁo.
00:32Marcus Rashford had given United a seventh-minute lead, driving in from the left, cleverly beating
00:37two defenders before his tame near-post shot squirmed past Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa.
00:43Rasmus Hodgeland, starting his first game of the campaign, finished off a swift United
00:47attack to double the lead on 20 minutes and put his side in control.
00:52But Porto came roaring back.
00:54After a Joao Mario cross was nearly headed into his own net by Nusair Mazraoui, Brazil
00:59winger Pepe reacted quickest to nod home in the rebound.
01:03Just 14 minutes after United had gone 2-0 up, the hosts were level as Joao Mario's
01:08cross was headed in powerfully by Samuel Marotian.
01:11The Spanish striker then completed the turnaround five minutes after the break with a thumping
01:15near-post finish from Pepe's cutback after the United defence had been sliced open again.
01:21Ten Hags men pushed for an equaliser but things only got worse when Captain Fernandes was
01:25sent off for the second successive game for a second yellow card, both for a high boot,
01:29with nine minutes left.
01:31While his red in the dismal 3-0 loss at home to Tottenham was overturned on appeal, there
01:36was little doubt about this one.
01:38Porto could have added to their lead with the away side, even down to ten men, forced
01:42to throw players forward, but failed to make them count and were punished by Maguire's
01:46late header.
01:48Despite salvaging something from the game, United have won only three of their first
01:51ten matches of the season and, for the fourth European away game in a row, they failed to
01:56win despite having scored three goals.
