Manchester United avoided an embarrassing result as they came back to beat Omonia Nicosia 3-2 in Cyprus.

The hosts took the lead and went into the second half 1-0 up but Erik ten Hag made changes at the break and they paid off after just seven minutes.

Marcus Rashford equalised early in the second half before assisting the other substitute Anthony Martial to put United in the lead.

Rashford then doubled United’s lead late on before Omonia set up a nervy final few minutes when they halved the deficit.

The hosts could not quite go and earn themselves a point despite a valiant effort.

United have now won six of their last seven Europa League away games and remain second in Group E, three points behind leaders Real Sociedad.
