I said at half-time 'if you're going to go down, go down fighting'. You can accept losing if you've given absolutely everything and they didn't do that in the first half. But they did in the second half. The tone was set with Carlos Baleba. It was so unfortunate he got an injury for it but that was a spark.

Youri Tielemans came on and that changed the game a little bit. There was a little bit more control. When you're playing in these games and you're two down, you're already done, so you may as well go and give it everything you've got. You may as well run around. That should be the standard and now the great thing about it for Michael Carrick is now he has something to refer to.

Any time there's a difficult situation or pre-match team talk, it's going to be look what you do when you apply yourselves in that manner, then you are impossible to live with.

I think that is a huge second half for Michael Carrick. It wasn't pretty football necessarily but it was a battle and a fight. It was all about the intensity, they were winning the ball high up the pitch, they were pressing Roma's back line and they weren't letting them out.

They were direct and positive in what they did and that's not really been something we have seen from Man Utd through this dreadful run they have been on.

For Michael Carrick, he will hope that second half is a benchmark now that they put down to say 'this is where we go on from here'.

Manchester United

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes was asked whether the win at home to Roma would save boss Michael Carrick's job.

"We don't need to save anyone's job," he said.

"The club needed that win, the players needed that win. We have been working so hard to get out of this situation all together."

After being left on the bench for Manchester United's 3-0 home defeat by Bournemouth, captain Bruno Fernandes returned for Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Chelsea.

He then was named player of the match after United came back from 2-0 down to beat Roma 3-2, claiming one goal and delivering the cross for Mathues Cunha's equaliser.

"Everyone thought that was a punishment for the words that I had, and if it was, it was right," Fernandes said about the Bournemouth game. "The manager is the one who makes the decisions.

"It doesn't change the belief I have of the manager and the staff and every player in this club," he added. "It doesn't change my aim to win every game that I have ahead of me."

Manchester United

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes spoke to the media for the first time since being dropped to the bench after publicly criticising Michael Carrick's tactics after their 4-1 loss at Como in their previous Champions League game.

"It's been tough, there's been a lot of speculation in the media," Fernandes told Amazon Prime.

"A lot of lies around many things that have happened between me and the manager, that we have cleared the air, then after that the manager took the decision to put me on the bench because I'm not performing. That's fair."

Despite Manchester United's terrible start, Michael Carrick still believed they could get something from the game.

The head coach insists he is blocking out the external noise and remains fully committed to turning the club's fortunes around.

"At half-time, I was wanting them to be more positive, if anything, and not get too disappointed and frustrated," said Carrick.

"When you keep trying to do something, the easiest thing is feeling sorry for yourself. If something goes wrong, you get disappointed. That's not going to help anybody. We might as well all go home if that's the case. We've got to keep looking for the next moment, the next solution.

"I don't like to keep talking to the lads about what this place can do and the history and what's gone before too much, but it's there.

"This place does magical things, it's done it before and it'll do it over and over again at some point in the future. There's just something in this place that when we do have these types of nights, we do it the hard way.

"But one moment can flip the whole place in a different direction. I spoke about that with the boys. Let's have one moment that can trigger it. And we had that."

Mathues Cunha received his first booking for his celebrations after scoring his second goal and ultimately the match winner. The Brazil forward took his shirt off before jumping into the United fans in that corner.

He was then shown a second yellow card for a late challenge on Roma defender Leonardo Balerdi.

And welcome to today's live football page, where we're looking back on a dramatic night in the Champions League.

Manchester United's poor run of form looked set to continue as Roma went 2-0 up inside 17 minutes only for the hosts to make a thrilling fightback to win 3-2.

That gave the Red Devils their first win in 10 games in all competitions and eased the pressure on manager Michael Carrick.

So let's have a look at what the heck happened at Old Trafford.
