Man United secured a place in the Europa League semi-finals after a crazy 5-4 win over Lyon in the quarter-finals.

After a 2-2 draw in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final, Man United welcomed Lyon at Old Trafford at dawn on April 18 (Vietnam time). Man United took the lead early after the coordination of Manuel Ugarte and his teammates in the 10th minute. Diogo Dalot doubled the gap for the home team in the last minutes of the first half.

However, the tension gradually appeared in the second half as Lyon tried to put pressure. Two goals in just 6 minutes by Corentin Tolisso and Nicolas Tagliafico brought the match back to balance.

In the 89th minute, Tolisso was sent off after receiving a second yellow card. Despite having an advantage in terms of numbers when entering extra time, the Red Devils could not take advantage. In the 104th minute, Rayan Cherki's beautiful shot defeated the struggling Andre Onana.

Just 5 minutes later, Fofana was pulled down in the penalty area through a combination of Luke Shaw and Leny Yoro. The penalty was awarded to Lyon, and Alexandre Lacazette coolly finished in the 109th minute to make it 4-2.

The next developments were extremely dramatic when Bruno Fernandes scored after successfully taking a penalty from Casemiro. In the 120th minute, Kobbie Mainoo equalized for Man United before Harry Maguire received a pass from Casemiro to head into goalkeeper Lucas Perri's net.

With the final result of 5-4, Man United continued in the overwhelming emotions of fans at Old Trafford (total score of 7-6). The Red Devils are now the first team in history to score two goals in the 120th minute of a big European Cup match.

Ruben Amorim and his team will advance to the semi-finals to face Athletic Club.
