Absurd pub league game that. Great to win in the end, but not much good to take away from it otherwise, we looked so poor after that first half.

insane to win and go through but still don't think any player even reached a passing grade.
Mate. We're like 15th in the league. Our squad is shit. We have one tiny last thread of hope left which is this tournament and we qualify in this manner. None of what you said barely even matters anymore. It's take what you can get time and this it. Enjoy it. Cos if we do go out you're not getting a night like this in a long time. Cheer up dude.
 
Who saw that come back at 4-2 down with 10 minutes to go. From the depths of dark despair to absolute amazing joy.

Amazing scenes.
 
Bilbao are too intimidating. Neither of us wanted to face them.
You know what, that actually makes sense.

They'll host the final so they have extra incentive, too. No wonder Lyon crapped themselves after United did.
 
Feels weird to say but no room left for negative emotions now. OH MY GOODNESS
 
The posters calling for Amorim to be sacked after Cherki scored :lol::lol:
 
Dalot was emotional at full time....I was doing the same thing.
 
What a bunch of bottlers. GET THE FECK IN YOU BEAUTIES! Unbelievable night of European football. Love you Reds.

Hah. I saw the first clip but not the second. Glad they went back to the little guy after we turned it around.
 
Robbie Savage called it tbf, said Maguire would get a chance.
 
People talking shit about Casemiro, 2 assists and a penalty foul on him in extra time. Hats off to him. Wish we got him 5 year earlier.
 
Wow Wtf did I just watched? I'm not even sure exactly how I feel since I went through a range of emotions there. Delighted with the comeback, bit obviously pissed we even got to that point. Relief and frustration at the same time.
 
We will never have a comeback like that ever again. We will never score 3 goals playing that bad again either
 
Him and Bruno are two of the few with the mentality and quality we need. Unfortunately, he's at the wrong stage of his career and his body just cannot do everything his brain wants.

He doesn't have the acceleration to play his position unfortunately but still has a bit of class about him.
 
i am still f**king livid, Maguire the hero but his defending was absolutely shambolic. This Lyon side is full of rejects and a decent side would of dispatched them easily. Dalot giving it big balls at the end and his defending again shambollic... and shaw is taking the p*ss. He looks about 20 stone ffs...Garnacho was so wastefull and Onana..... circus ring leader! They are a shambles!! Fernandez needs to go as he is wasting his talent at utd!
 
The most Manchester United way for Manchester United to win a football match. Bloody hell.

Sometimes you forget just what this club can do to you, deep inside. Remember what it was like under SAF when it never felt like we were beaten? How we nearly literally always did what we did tonight? It’s incredible to know what football can do to you, it really is.
 
What supporting this club has done to my health...summed up in those crazy 6 min of second extra time! Just unreal, but on we fecking go!!!! COME ON REDS.
 
I’ve not celebrated extra time goals (or even just goals in general) like that in a very very long time. It felt like the Man Utd of old growing up watching it. Just so many emotions went through that match.

I need to catch my breath & have a lie down now :lol::)

My throats is killing me, and I’m knackered but the adrenaline is pumping. Been a while since I completely lost it at a goal

Football, bloody hell
 
Proper United in European Knockout moments.


Fundamentally, loads of holes after the first 45. We are still mentally weak. With a 2 goal lead we shoud be able to see out the second half, but we went to shit. It's mentality, it's culture. This needs a full reset.
 
For the push? I agree. At first I thought he might have been off, but he was well onside, and then I thought they would give the push.
Ye I didn’t see the push in normal time but when it showed it back during maguires interview it did look like he pushed him.
