One night to remember later – or rather, never forget – in Old Trafford. This comes down to the emotion lived this Thursday, in an absolutely epic game between Manchester United and Lyon, counting on the Europa League.
Among the thousands of adepts in ecstasy was Rio Ferdinand, legend of the “Red Devils”, who now comments on the games as a television analyst. When Kobbie Mainoo did the 4-4, on 120 minutes, the former central defense did not contain the emotion: “I believe in miracles,” he said, referring to the young talent that returned from injury… in style.
But the truly surreal moment was reserved for the next minute. Harry Maguire, so often criticized, consumed the turnaround at 120+1 minutes, taking Ferdinand – and the whole “dream theater” – to total madness.

The game entered the history books directly by becoming the first in UEFA competitions with five goals in extension: two from Lyon, three from Manchester United. A roller coaster of emotions that will undoubtedly be eternally recorded in the memory of the supporters.
