Manchester United rally from 2-0 down to beat Roma 3-2
Why it matters: The comeback eased pressure on Michael Carrick after a nine-game winless run and a poor start to the season.
Manchester United fought back from 2-0 down to beat Roma 3-2 in the Champions League at Old Trafford, a result that gave Michael Carrick a lift amid mounting pressure on his job. Roma, unbeaten in 10 Serie A matches this season, raced ahead inside 17 minutes. United turned the tie after halftime when Bruno Fernandes scored from a retaken penalty and Matheus Cunha struck twice in three minutes. The comeback followed fan protests against the Glazer family before kickoff and boos at halftime as United trailed. Diogo Dalot said the second-half response showed supporters that the players care and want to change the mood around the club.
