United began assertively, with Manuel Ugarte opening the scoring in the 10th minute, followed by Diogo Dalot doubling the lead just before halftime. However, Lyon responded in the second half, with Corentin Tolisso and Nicolás Tagliafico leveling the aggregate score, pushing the match into extra time.

United's resilience shone through as Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty in the 114th minute, Kobbie Mainoo equalized in the 120th, and Harry Maguire headed the decisive goal in the 121st minute, completing a remarkable turnaround.
