Maguire's late goal rescues Manchester United from defeat, securing 3-3 draw at Porto in chaotic Europa League clash.




Manchester United secured a dramatic 3-3 draw against Porto in the Europa League, thanks to Harry Maguire's injury-time header. The match was marked by a thrilling conclusion, with United coming from behind twice.


Marcus Rashford opened the scoring in the seventh minute, cleverly beating two defenders before his tame shot squirmed past Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa. Rasmus Hojlund doubled the lead in the 20th minute, finishing off a swift United attack.


However, Porto staged a remarkable comeback. Pepe nodded home in the rebound after Joao Mario's cross nearly resulted in an own goal. Samu Omorodion then headed in powerfully from Joao Mario's cross, leveling the score.


After the break, Porto took the lead through Mehdi Taremi's thumping near-post finish from Pepe's cutback. Despite being down to 10 men following Bruno Fernandes' sending off, United pushed forward.


In the first minute of added time, Maguire rose highest to meet Christian Eriksen's corner, heading superbly into the bottom corner to rescue a vital point for under-pressure manager Erik ten Hag.
