With the score tied at 2-2 after full time, Lyon—despite being down to 10 men—scored twice in extra time to take a 4-2 lead.
Just when the match seemed lost, United staged a stunning comeback, scoring three late goals through Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo, and Harry Maguire to book their place in the semi-finals.
Remarkably, this was also the first major European game in history to see five goals scored in extra time.
