Manchester United vs Omonia, Europa League: Catch the live score, updates and commentary from Omonia vs Manchester United Group E match at GSP Stadium.

United does not take long to win the ball and take control. The ball is long and goes out of play. The attempts starts to dip but a moment too late and only hits the crossbar. Antony is in the centre of the field and plays a pass to Malacia on the left wing. The referee blows the half-time whistle and the Omonia to everyone’s surprise is in the lead at the half-way mark. The foward takes the ball to his left foot and crosses but the Argentine is not fooled and blocks the cross. The left-back’s cross takes a deflection but still manages to creep through to the six-yard box where Ronaldo’s jump is mistimed. Antony fires a cross from the right flank but the Omonia defence is able to clear it out. The forward takes the ball forward and as the defender moves to follow him, he turns back and cuts the ball to his right. The Frenchman passes to Ronaldo who is absolutely unmarked but he is too slow to take the shot and an Omonia player comes in with a block to take the ball away from him. The Portuguese and Martial work the ball with a neat one-two move. The second win for United takes it to six points from three games and cements its place in the second place.

The Iran international beat [David de Gea](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/108482/David-de-Gea) to find the roof of the net and give the hosts a shock lead. Ronaldo then looked certain to get goal 700 but hit the post from close range. Ten minutes later United were in front, with Rashford again heavily involved. The changes reaped swift dividends.
