Manchester United 2-2 Benfica – as it happened

Manchester United got what they deserved. Very little.

93 min: It’s a corner for Manchester United. It’s probably their last chance. It doesn’t clear the last man. It’s full time.

91 min: Cross, clearance, cross, clearance, cross, clearance. Two minutes left.

89 min: A forceful run from Rodrigo, and down the inside left channel he hits the side netting. So little time left.

88 min: United switch play from left to right, right to left. Benfica could do this for another twenty minutes. United could be Sven Goran Erikssonning their way out of Europe, right here.

84 min: United have been so bereft of real skill and ideas that it’s been like watching England’s Golden Generation. Benfica are settling in to defend, and unless something magical happens they should be fine. Maxi is booked for a rough challenge on Young.
