Manchester United come back from 0-2 down
Manchester United beat AS Roma 3-2 at Old Trafford in the Champions League after trailing 0-2. It was their first win since 10 September, when they beat FC Sabah 4-0 in the same competition. Rodrigo Mora's pass found Soulé, who gave Roma the lead, and six minutes later United defender Ayden Heaven handled in the box. Donyell Malen, who was playing for Roma, scored the resulting penalty from the spot. Roma scored both goals within 17 minutes, which no team had ever done so quickly twice at Old Trafford in a European competition. Roma were 2-0 up at half-time, with Devyne Rensch and Marten de Roon also starting for the visitors.
The second half turnaround
Bruno Fernandes had his first penalty saved in the 55th minute, but the kick was retaken because Roma players had moved into the box too early, and he scored the second attempt. Telegraaf reports that Matheus Cunha equalised seven minutes from time, while AD says a mistake by Roma defender Leonardo Balerdi gave him a clear chance in the 83rd minute. AD adds that Cunha scored the 3-2 winner three minutes later.
Matthijs de Ligt came on for the hosts shortly afterwards. Cunha was shown a second yellow card in injury time and had to leave the pitch, so United saw out the win with ten men.Paris Saint-Germain rout Villarreal
Paris Saint-Germain beat Villarreal 6-0 and scored four goals in the first 16 minutes through Joao Neves, Desiré Doué, Senny Mayulu and Fabian Ruiz. Ruiz and David Boly extended the lead in the second half. Data company Opta said that no club had previously scored four goals that quickly in a Champions League match. PSG, coached by Luis Enrique, have 12 points from four matches and a goal difference of 20-5. Earlier in the competition they had beaten Manchester City and FC Barcelona, according to Telegraaf.
Barcelona win and Frenkie de Jong's 300th appearance
Barcelona beat Aston Villa 3-0 at Camp Nou, with goals from Lamine Yamal and two from Raphinha. Frenkie de Jong came on for Pedri in the 70th minute, when Barcelona already led 3-0, under coach Hansi Flick. It was his 300th appearance for the club, which makes him the Dutch player with the most matches for Barcelona. He had passed Phillip Cocu, who played 292 times for the Catalan club.
