Spurred on by the enthusiastic home crowd, Man Utd started the match with great energy and needed only 10 minutes to break down Lyon's defense. Following a pass from Bruno Fernandes, Alejandro Garnacho dribbled past two defenders before passing the ball back to Manuel Ugarte, who finished from close range to open the scoring.
The home team's opening goal pushed the pace of the game to its highest level. The ball was constantly being passed between the two ends of the pitch, accompanied by a series of back-and-forth attacks. If MU had Bruno Fernandes, Lyon also had a dangerous "spark" in Rayan Cherki. The young star born in 2003 sparked the visitors' two best scoring opportunities in the 22nd and 32nd minutes. However, Andre Onana managed to regain his form and save the home team.
Most of MU's players performed impressively in the first half. |
Shortly after, MU responded with a long, powerful shot from Bruno, which hit the crossbar after a precise long pass from Diogo Dalot. The Old Trafford fans didn't have to regret it for too long, because in the 45th minute, MU doubled their lead. Dalot shone with a powerful shot from a tight position, giving goalkeeper Lucas Perri no chance to save it. The assist came from Harry Maguire with his trademark through ball.
