Manchester United squander a 2-0 lead in Porto in the second round of the Europa League, but then strike again in stoppage time to salvage a point. Meanwhile, Frankfurt win at Besiktas Istanbul.
Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Höjlund gave Manchester a two-goal lead in Porto in the first 20 minutes. Pepê (the 26-year-old Brazilian, not the Portuguese who retired in the summer at the age of 41) and Samuel Omorodion Aghehowa, who scored twice, then turned the game around for the hosts. After Bruno Fernandes was sent off early, as he had been at the weekend in the Premier League, Harry Maguire secured at least a point for the visitors in the 91st minute.
After two rounds, the Europa League favorites from Manchester are still without a win. On the first matchday, coach Erik ten Hag's team only drew 1-1 at home against Twente Enschede.
Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt made amends for their 3:3 home draw against Viktoria Pilsen in the opening round by conceding three late goals. The 2022 Europa League winners from Germany won 3:1 at Besiktas Istanbul thanks in part to two early goals. Ciro Immobile missed the timely follow-up goal for the Turks with a poorly taken penalty. The hosts only made it 3-1 in stoppage time.
