Europa League: Manchester United sneaks past Omonia
Manchester United survived a banana skin as they ran out 3-2 winners against Cypriot side Omonia Nicosia.
English striker scored a brace to overturn a first half deficit and ensure the plucky Cypriots never found a way back.
The Cypriot side took a shock lead into half time through Karim Ansarifard.
United manager Erik Ten Hag introduced Rashford at the interval and he scored eight minutes later before setting up fellow sub Antony Martial to finish.
Rashford made it 3-1 late on, before Nikolas Panayiotou pulled one back on an unexpectedly edgy night for United.
Despite the win, United remain second in Group E after Real Sociedad won 2-0 in Sheriff – meaning a play-off against a team dropping out of the Champions League to reach the knockout stages remains a possibility.
