Europa League: Uzoho stops Ronaldo as United snatch late victory
McTominay finally found the breakthrough with their 33rd attempt on goal
Francis Uzoho denied Cristiano Ronaldo a chance to score in Thursday's Europa League clash at Old Trafford.
Unfortunately, after a heroic 90 minutes performance from the Nigerian goalkeeper, United dug deep to steal a late win all thanks to their super sub, McTominay
Omonia arrived in Manchester having lost five of their last seven matches, including last Thursday's 3-2 defeat to United, but produced a defiant, heroic stand, epitomised by inspired goalkeeper Francis Uzoho, as Neil Lennon's side came within seconds of leaving Old Trafford with the unlikeliest of points.
Having seen Uzoho thwart efforts from Marcus Rashford, Antony and Cristiano Ronaldo, and Casemiro rattle the crossbar, United erased a frustrating evening in front of goal when McTominay finally found the breakthrough with their 33rd attempt on goal.
United stay second in Europa League Group E, three points behind leaders Real Sociedad, but know victory in their final two matches will see them progress into the round-of-16 as group winners without having to face a side demoted from the Champions League in a play-off.
