Man Utd perform stunning comeback to dump Barcelona out of Europa League - 6 talking points

Manchester United came from behind against Barcelona for a second week running, and this time they held on to reach the Europa League last 16, with Antony scoring the decisive goal.

Robert Lewandowski's penalty put the visitors ahead, ensuring Barca had an early edge after the first leg ended all-square. The Poland international converted from the spot after Bruno Fernandes brought down Alejandro Balde just inside the box, and that was the only goal of the first half.

United changed things up at half-time, though, and got an immediate reward through Fred's equaliser. As Barca looked for a second, they were hit by a sucker punch when substitute Antony found a way past Marc-Andre ter Stegen to send the home side through.
