00:00I did know they need to find a goal to take this to penalties too if they want
00:05it decided inside extra time. Against the ten men of Lyon. French side looking for
00:14a first victory at Old Trafford. Diogo Delo floats a ball into the penalty area.
00:20Heading clear by Ainslie Maitland-Niles. Harry Amass. And then Tanner Tessman, oh no it's
00:29Cherki, goes down seconds after the restart. He's hoisted back to his feet and now we are
00:37going to allow play to continue. The substitution is now going to happen that we were expecting.
00:45Cherki is the one that's going to be making way. He was just trying to kill a bit of time wasn't he
00:48Rayan Cherki and doing it in a less than subtle way. Luke Shaw ushers Rayan Cherki from the field, physically.
01:02Alex Lacazette coming over to have a whinge in the ear of the official. Luke Shaw explaining to the
01:08referee, well if you'd potentially done your job properly I wouldn't have had to throw him off the
01:13field of play. No. We are back underway. Luke Shaw in possession for Manchester United.
01:22Harry Maguire has stayed up there. Don't blame him. And is that is that going to be a feature of the
01:28rest of this second half? I think it probably might be. Well can cause chaos, can Harry Maguire inside the
01:35penalty area. Lyon very deep here and Manchester United are going to have to try and unpick this lock.
01:40Something that they've not been brilliant at over the course of this season. Heller comes back across
01:44it straight into the arms of the waiting goalkeeper Lucas Berry. Yeah, it's got to be angled.
01:49Kobi Maynuk, it's got to be angled better.
01:55Guess what? We've got a Lyon player down inside the penalty area. Well, of course they're going to do it.
02:00And in all fairness, well I mean he's played in the English Premier League,
02:04games they make the Nile, so I'm surprised at him. For Arsenal. What did I say?
02:12No, no, I was just saying. He played in the Premier League. Yeah, for Arsenal. Yeah, yeah.
02:17Which means he is well versed. Oh, right. Is the point that I was making,
02:22giving away on the edge of the penalty area for Varnas into the box, tackle comes in, it's a minute.
02:25Oh no, the referee's given a penalty. Well, the referee has given Lyon a penalty.
02:32A yellow card to Lenny Yoro. We're going to have to have another look at this. It looked to me like
02:36Lenny Yoro had won the ball. The referee, much closer than me, points immediately to the spot.
02:42And this could end Manchester United's game, could end their campaign in the Europa League.
02:47And taking a look at the replay here. Well, Ben, what do you make of it?
02:56Well, the look on Luke Shaw's face says it all. And I have to say that one of the best players on
03:07show this evening, in a red shirt anyway, from after his first kick, has been Casemiro,
03:14and have no idea what he was doing. From an experienced player at this level and higher,
03:19I don't know what he's thinking with the pass that he makes inside.
03:24Well, look, it's straightforward this. If Lyon score, they go on to win,
03:28because Manchester United will not recover two goals in the space of 11 minutes.
03:35Alexandra Lacazette stands over this for Lyon, the captain.
03:4115 goals in all competitions this season against Andrean Arnott.
03:47Can Andrean Arnott make himself the hero? Up steps Lacazette and scores for Lyon.
03:54Manchester United with an Everest-like mountain to climb if they are going to find a way back into this one.
04:01Lyon have all but confirmed their place in the semi-finals of the Europa League.
04:05And Manchester United, after leading the tie by two goals to nil, trailed by four goals to two.
04:11Yeah, can't have any arguments. I mean, there'll be plenty of arguments going in that dressing room.
04:17Oh, there should be. If you concede two goals with ten men, the way that Manchester United have done.
04:25But apart from, you just can't have any arguments with the penalty. It is a penalty.
04:32Well, United were in such control. Two nil at half-time, looking so commanding.
04:38If somebody had said to me at half-time, they're going to concede four in the second half.
04:42And two of those are going to be without, when you're down to ten men.
04:45I would have laughed, but it's happened.
04:50And it's soul-destroying because they put everything into that first half and did everything so right.
04:56And since then, it's just gone so very wrong.
05:01Bruno Fernandes trying to make something happen for Manchester United.
05:05Luke Shaw is going to try and get the cross in. It's blocked and away it goes.
05:10Harry Amas with the throw-in out on that far side.
05:16Here it comes. Luke Shaw brings it under control with the instep of his right boot.
05:21Across from Ericsson to Diogo Delo. Swings it back to Luke Shaw, who takes a touch
05:27and gets the left-footed cross into the penalty area. Heads go up.
05:30Loose ball inside the penalty area. Casemiro with a real chance goes down.
05:33Referee says no penalty. Cleared away for the corner. Bruno Fernandes absolutely furious.
05:38Casemiro has stayed down. VAR will take a look, but the result could well just be a Manchester United corner.
05:45Well, it's not. Well, he's kicked him. Yeah.
05:48It's a penalty. Yeah. He plays the ball.
05:53Casemiro is the connection. And he is caught by Almeida.
05:57And that is a penalty. It's a penalty.
06:00It's not been given on the field though, so we are requiring the video assistant referee
06:04to overturn it, Ben.
06:05Nah, he gets nothing on the ball. It's quite clear that he catches the bottom of,
06:10he catches the bottom of Bruno Fernandes' stud.
06:12And that's a penalty. I'm sorry. If you're worth your salt.
06:20And you're in that VAR for UEFA, you have got to see that or you should not be there.
06:27While the referee holds his hand to his earpiece, we will wait and see whether he gets called over
06:32to the monitor to take another look. But Sandro O'Shea is being spoken to by the video assistant referee for Dahi San.
06:45Blows his whistle. Square in the air. He's going to come and have a look.
06:49So the monitor is ready for the referee as he comes across.
06:55So the on-field decision has been questioned by the video assistant referee who would like to show
07:01the on-field referee the incident again. Casemiro brings the ball down inside the penalty area.
07:07And it looks like he has the bottom of his boot kicked quite clearly as the bottom of his boot kicked.
07:13And now the referee has to make a decision as to whether or not that is a penalty.
07:18For me and Ben, without a doubt, he has kicked him in the foot.
07:22And it should be overturned and a penalty given for Manchester United.
07:26Yeah, he gets nothing on the ball. Casemiro nicks it away from him there.
07:30And then he's caught. Oh my God.
07:33You can hear from the reaction inside Old Trafford. Penalty has been given.
07:42Bruno Fernandes. Ball tucked under his arm.
07:48Scored nine out of his last ten.
07:56Fernandes with a pressure penalty for Manchester United.
08:04Bruno Fernandes against Lucas Perry.
08:07I can barely speak.
08:12Is this the foothold that Manchester United need?
08:16Whistle goes.
08:18Fernandes.
08:20Starts his run-up. Strikes it.
08:22And scores for Manchester United.
08:24Is it a lifeline?
08:25Is it a moment of hope?
08:27Is there one more opportunity to give Manchester United a chance of taking the game to penalties?
08:34Leon 4.
08:35Manchester United 3.
08:37Bruno Fernandes from the penalty spot.
08:39I'll tell you what, that is an unbelievable penalty.
08:43Because Perry's guessed the right way.
08:45And if he had not buried that right in the corner, just inside the post, then he would have reached it.
08:51No question.
08:54That is a sensational penalty.
08:56And under the pressure as well.
08:58Knowing that if he'd have missed that, for whatever reason, that would have been United's chances.
09:03He's just done, but this way, there's probably ten minutes left in this game.
09:10With added time.
09:13There's a chance.
09:14There is a chance.
09:16Gillesa Char onto the field to replace Taliafico.
09:20They've gone straight to a back five.
09:22He has gone as an extra centre-back.
09:25Harry Maguire is playing number nine for Manchester United.
09:28Casemiro wins the header in midfield.
09:30The ball is brought down by Leni Oro.
09:33Given back to the goalkeeper by Luke Shaw.
09:36Andrei Anana swings a right-footed clearance up towards Mason Mount.
09:39He's being wrestled.
09:40The referee gives Manchester United the free kick.
09:45Yeah.
09:45Diogo Delo to Bruno Fernandes.
09:48Harry Maguire is still in the number nine position.
09:52Luke Shaw down the left-hand side.
09:55Can Manchester United find a way through?
09:58Is there one more opportunity?
10:01Is there a chance for Manchester United to still take this game to penalties?
10:05Turn around the corner.
10:06Harry Maguire in the penalty area.
10:08He's clearly being held back.
10:09Referee says no again.
10:11It looks for all the world like Harry Maguire's having his shirt pulled.
10:15The referee waves it away.
10:17The ball is safely in the hands of Lucas Perry.
10:20And Leon will get the game restarted.
10:22Oh, yeah.
10:25Yeah.
10:25It's a penalty.
10:26Yeah, he is.
10:27Niakate is dragging his shirt.
10:28Oh, look at that.
10:29It's a penalty.
10:30That's got to be checked.
10:31Yeah.
10:32The referee has turned time off.
10:34We are going to see this again.
10:36I'm looking again.
10:37I mean, Harry Maguire has got hold of Niakate's shirt as well.
10:42That is the only mitigating factor.
10:44But he's clearly pulled to the ground.
10:46For me, that is a penalty all day long.
10:50Whether or not the video assistant referee and the referee have got the bottle to overturn
10:55the on-field decision, Ben, we don't know yet.
10:58No, we don't.
10:59He certainly had a hole.
11:01And he got away with a certain booking in the last game as well in France.
11:10But that was certainly a huge shirt pull.
11:17And the goalkeeper just thought that he'd go down one more time.
11:21It's not going to be given.
11:24The referee is going to allow play to continue.
11:26That one will be debated long into the night.
11:32For me, crystal clear that Harry Maguire is pulled to the ground.
11:38Bounce ball restart is back in the hands of Lucas Perry.
11:48I am astonished.
11:49Perry with the long throw headed back towards Lucas Perry by Christian Eriksen.
12:00Referee says there is no foul.
12:02And now Mason Mountburst in through the middle.
12:04Bruno Fernandes gets it out to the left-hand side.
12:06Casemiro looking to help this arm.
12:08Finds Luke Shaw.
12:09Luke Shaw measures the cross into the penalty area.
12:11Heads go up.
12:12It's cleared away.
12:13Lacazette brings it down.
12:14Headed forward again by Christian Eriksen.
12:16One back by Casemiro.
12:17Harry Amass comes infield.
12:20Finds Luke Shaw.
12:21Luke Shaw bends another cross into the penalty area.
12:23Falls for Bruno Fernandes.
12:24Fernandes strike is wide.
12:25Oh, he's just cut across it.
12:27Bruno Fernandes with the effort from the edge of the penalty area.
12:31Push wide of the mark.
12:33If there's anything or anybody that you want to put.
12:36He just didn't step up to it, did he?
12:39He was always leaning back and never really had that under control.
12:42Because the first touch was perfect for him.
12:44Maybe it was just too far in front.
12:46And that little lad, bless him.
12:48He can't bear it.
12:48I know how you feel, sunshine.
12:52Two minutes.
12:58Two minutes for one more chance.
13:01Two minutes to find a way through.
13:04Two minutes for Manchester United.
13:05To rescue their chances of making the semi-finals.
13:13Lenny Oro does brilliantly against Lacazette.
13:16Out it comes to Luke Shaw.
13:18Manchester United have got to fashion one more chance.
13:21Bruno Fernandes carries the ball forward.
13:25Tries to lead his side forward.
13:27Crossfield ball headed away.
13:29Going to be picked up by Mason Mount.
13:31Gives this to Diogo Delo.
13:33Helps it on to Christian Eriksen.
13:35Eriksen across to Bruno Fernandes.
13:37Fernandes, edge of the box.
13:40Takes it past his man.
13:41Finds Luke Shaw.
13:42Shaw looks to give it back to Bruno Fernandes.
13:43Misplaces the pass.
13:45Cleared away to Andrean Arnau.
13:47Got to be better, Luke Shaw.
13:49And he is better than that.
13:51Final 60 seconds.
13:54Bruno Fernandes again.
13:55Carrying the ball forward again.
13:57Casemiro lifts this into Kobi Mainu.
13:59Mainu takes a touch.
14:00Kobi Mainu!
14:02Kobi Mainu!
14:05Kobi Mainu may have rescued Manchester United's chances.
14:10How many big game goals is Kobi Mainu going to score?
14:15The young stop boarding and does it again.
14:19Big stage.
14:20Big player.
14:22Kobi Mainu.
14:234-4.
14:24We said that we might not have any voices left after this.
14:28And the thing is, Liam, it isn't finished because I think there may be another three or four minutes left.
14:34But I tell you what, give this team credit.
14:36That penalty goes in from Lacazette.
14:38They look done and dusted.
14:40And you can forgive people for saying I'm going to get home and beat the traffic, beat the queues.
14:47But this team has never given up.
14:50It's a brilliant finish from Kobi Mainu.
14:54Five minutes of time added on.
14:56Five minutes left.
14:58Can Manchester United do it?
15:00I think I speak for every Manchester United fan on planet Earth when I say we love you Kobi Mainu.
15:09I love you Kobi Mainu.
15:11Manchester United, forward they come again.
15:14Momentum is all theirs towards the scoreboard end.
15:17Down the left-hand side with Harry Amass.
15:19Luke Shaw continues his run.
15:21Infield to Casemiro.
15:23Casemiro comes to the edge of the penalty area.
15:25Stands up across.
15:26Harry Maguire.
15:28Harry Maguire scores.
15:30Manchester United take the lead.
15:33Oh, the ball in from Casemiro is perfect.
15:37Harry Maguire peels up the back and heads home.
15:42And Manchester United from 4-2 down.
15:46Lyon lead Lyon by five goals to four.
15:50Oh, my God.
15:53Oh, it's just incredible.
15:56My co-commentator has succumbed to the emotion.
16:01So I'll have to talk you through it myself.
16:05This team have never given up and you just had that feeling, didn't you?
16:09You just had that feeling that they could fashion another opportunity.
16:16I was so glad he stayed there because that is an unbelievable header.
16:21It's a great ball, but what a header.
16:25It's amazing.
16:26What a night.
16:28What a night.
16:29Taking a look back.
16:30Harry Maguire just peels off the shoulder and nods home.
16:33The ball to find him from Casemiro is perfect, but Maguire's movement.
16:38He just pulls off the shoulder of Niacate and nods it home.
16:42It is absolutely sensational.
16:44This stadium is electric.
16:46I'm crying.
16:48Ben's bouncing up and down.
16:49For everyone that can't be here, this one is for you.
16:56For everyone that cannot make it, this one is for you.
17:00For everyone that would have loved to be here, this one is for you.
17:095-4.
17:12Three minutes to play.
17:167-6 on aggregate.
17:18Leon going to start it again.
17:20I told you at the beginning of this game.
17:26Ball forward into the penalty area.
17:28Punched away by Andrejana.
17:30Well, I tell you what.
17:31He's got all of that.
17:32Cobby Mainu's way down the left-hand side here.
17:34Can he keep it in?
17:35No, he can't.
17:36I said right at the beginning of this,
17:38these players had the opportunity to write their names into the ledger
17:42of great nights at Old Trafford.
17:44Well, I tell you what.
17:45They are minutes away from having done exactly that.
17:48But now they've got to switch on, Ben.
17:51They certainly have.
17:53There's no reason for them to be pushed back.
17:56There's no reason for them to allow balls to be put into the area
18:00without any pressure.
18:01And that's a foul.
18:03Sure, and that's a foul.
18:04Well, the referee eventually gives that foul.
18:07Well done, Mason Mount.
18:10I mean, this is just epic.
18:13I can't remember.
18:14And I've been here on some unbelievable nights.
18:16Hang on a minute.
18:17We've got a problem with Andrejana.
18:19Andrejana's gone down.
18:21Is he just doing his exercises?
18:23No, I think he's got cramp.
18:25How the goalkeeper's got cramp?
18:27Well, he hasn't got cramp, has he?
18:28Let's be...
18:29What's actually happening here is Andrejana
18:31who's trying to take the sting out of what's going on.
18:37Oh, he's just mocking his opposite number.
18:40I don't care what it is.
18:42Yeah, me neither.
18:43Manchester United, 2-0 up.
18:45Peg back to 4-2 down.
18:47Now lead Lyon by five goals to four.
18:50I've never seen a game like this.
18:53I've never seen a game like this.
18:55Listen to Old Trafford.
18:57I mean, and of all people, Harry Maguire, who I said earlier, has been superb all night.
19:09One of the very few that has been superb all night.
19:14He deserves that more than anybody on that field.
19:18I cannot wait to see him in the tunnel afterwards.
19:22I might even give him a hug.
19:24The referee gives the free kick against Manchester United.
19:28Christian Eriksen kicks the ball away while the referee's not looking.
19:31Gets away with it, isn't going to go in the book.
19:33We have now played all but 20 seconds of the five added on.
19:36But there will be some added on after the added on.
19:38So Manchester United now defending deep.
19:42Ball is with Almada.
19:44Almada comes across to Mata.
19:47Mata comes forward now for Lyon down the left-hand side.
19:52Manchester United trying to get to him.
19:54Casemiro steps out.
19:55Mason Mount gets close.
19:56And now Eriksen tries to get a touch on this one.
20:00Forward again to Tessman.
20:03The five minutes is up.
20:04Yeah.
20:05But there's more added.
20:06Ball into the penalty area.
20:08Headed away.
20:09Diogo Delo gets close to it and then just puts the ball out.
20:12Brilliant from Diogo Delo.
20:14Plays it against the Alps stretch foot.
20:16He deflects behind.
20:17It's going to be a goal kick.
20:18And that will take Manchester United to the precipice of qualification for the semi-final.
20:24The most extraordinary game I think I have ever seen in European competition at this famous old stadium, Ben.
20:35And me.
20:36And me.
20:37And if you can imagine back to all those famous nights in the Champions League and the teams that they've beaten.
20:45Honestly, for sheer drama.
20:49And the fact is that in extra time they were dead and buried.
20:55Dead and buried.
20:58It's just...
20:58It's been an immense, immense evening.
21:02Oh, wow.
21:03Seriously.
21:05That penalty from Lacazette looked like it had finished Manchester United off, but there is no die.
21:12That Tifo flag at the beginning of the game that said, never gonna stop.
21:18Well, let me tell you, this Manchester United haven't got close to stopping.
21:22Head of clearance from Manchester United.
21:24One back by Christian Eriksen.
21:26Away come Manchester United again.
21:28Break on here from Bruno Fernandes.
21:30He's got Kobi Maynou in front of him.
21:32Checks back, slows everything down.
21:34And then he's going to play this ball back into me.
21:35He's just going to run it.
21:36Bruno Fernandes just going to keep hold of it.
21:38What's the referee doing?
21:40Out it goes.
21:41Bruno Fernandes is fouled.
21:42Free kick is Manchester United's.
21:44Referee is going to have more minutes on.
21:46Never gonna stop.
21:48That's what the Tifo said on the far side of Old Trafford.
21:53Manchester United have not.
21:56Harry Maguire.
21:57What a header.
21:59At the back post, peeled off the shoulder of Nia Cate, to head home.
22:05The referee puts the whistle to his mouth.
22:08He blows the full-time whistle.
22:10And Manchester United have snatched a victory.
22:14The strength of character from Ruben Ammerim's side cannot be underestimated.
22:21Never beaten.
22:22Never stopped.
22:242-0 up.
22:264-2 down.
22:27And a roaring combat from Manchester United.
22:32Bruno Fernandes to make it 4-3.
22:35Kobi Maynou to make it 4-4.
22:38And then Harry Maguire playing as a number nine.
22:41Peeling off the shoulder of Moussa Niacate.
22:46Casemiro picking him out perfectly.
22:48And he places the header past the goalkeeper Lucas Perry.
22:52And Manchester United are heading to Bilbao.
22:57Semi-final time against Athletic Klopp.
23:01The most extraordinary game of football.
